Actually if it's a well established pond and eco in it is good the fish will eat the bugs and food life that's coming to life in the spring. Remember the creeks in the world do it themselves. If and when they start to eat and come up for food only feed enough of what they can eat in about 2 minutes. Don't overfeed and create problem of food rotting in the pond.
Remember nature does it best unless you have to many fish in the eco balance there.
If you are going to feed them the water temp should be about 50 degrees on the start. I don't know what kind of goldfish you have but here is a site of different mixes of foods to seasons.
