Default KOI feed

Been experimenting on various brands and types of feed, with my GF &
Koi as I am going broke paying their food bill. Now that they are up
to a decent size I was considering buying catfish food. ABout $10.00 a
50# bag as compared to 13.00 for a 1 1/4 lb bag of Tetra Pond sticks
and such. Cheapest regular Loi food I found so far is Kaybee Koi
Food.....which is not all that expensive but its still a 10# bag for
about $16.00

Anyone else feed Koi and GF catfish food?

I am not really concerned with nitrate or ammonia buildup as my pond
is a 1 acre pond from 16" to 21 feet deep in the middle, lots of
vegetation, but the KOI and GF are confined to an area of approx 12' x
20' by use of plastic fish netting.No filters etc used, just a pump
to constantly spray the area to keep the pollenns and dust off the
imediate enclosure where the Koi are......

Which bringsup another item. I was initially given this fish net, and
would like to construct a newer slightly larger enclosure beyond the
one I have now, and then remove my old enclosure, so does anyone have
a source fo 1/2" sq fish netting at a good price?

Thanks
