Moultrie MFG-13281 Quick Lock Directional Tripod 30-Gallon

The media could not be loaded.  We have a small pond with a few catfish, bluegill, and a ton of minnows. We tried the cheap and easy way with something else…but it did not work how we wanted it to. I eventually purchased this feeder since we already had two Moultrie deer feeders, and we are not disappointed. The fishies love it too!***TIPS***•Place your feeder as close to the water, or as far in the water as you can. The food gets thrownt, but some does not go as far. So this will help make sure all food lands in the water.•This does not come with a battery. So make sure you have one or buy one before setting it up.•It takes a few “test runs” to get the food down into the chute. So don’t expect it to throw food on the first run.

As noted in reviews doesn’t ‘throw’ fish pellets very far. Approx. 50% wind up directly under feeder. So, placed it in shallow water so that none winds up on the bank. BUT, it is relatively low priced compared to others! Made it work for me.

Feeding fish

We purchased this to automatically feed our fish. We had hoped to be able to set it up and feed the fish daily. It has only worked for about three days without us having to make adjustments. We purchased 2 of their 6 volt batteries, their solar charger, and their battery charger. We still end up hand feeding the fish multiple times each week and cannot trust the feeder to actually work.

Overall does what it says but doesn’t throw food very far.
