I inherited a pond with the house which is 12'x6' and about 20" deep. There are about 20 goldfish and about 6 koi carp and a lot of (stickle backs) I'm never sure when I should start to feed the fish again? I was told above 10° which it was 12 today but for the next few days it will be 5° or 6° so any advice appreciated.

It was 12 degrees here for the first time this year, so I fed our nine goldfish a small handful of food sticks.
I went back a couple of hours later and found that they had been nibbling. Still some bits floating about, though.
Unless it's over 10 degrees for more than a couple of days, I'll not feed them again yet.
