When you say pond, is that an existing pond that maybe has some sort of food in it for the trout already.

Hey,

Pond is new. its got pond liner inside the pond as the pond is built with limestone bricks.

Think tonight ill be putting another 3600lph pump in there as a venturi to create some serious water movement and aeration.

Cheers

My suggestion is leave them alone for a day or two and don't feed them. When you return the will be jumping out of the water before you even through the food in. Mine have gone off the feed at the moment because I did a bit of a shuffle and moved them from tank to tank, stressing them out. I will not be feeding them tomorrow and they should be back on the bite by Wednesday.
