Feeding question

[Amber23]

How long before my goldfish in my pond realize I am there to feed them? Right now when I go up to the pond, they swim to the bottom and hide under some plants. There is plenty of plants and things for them to munch on, but I would like for them to eat some food.

And if your fish are smaller than 6", the chart on this page is a good weight guideline.
