Ok, i just took these pics today. The last picture is before i cut all the shoreline vegetation down. I did leave an island area in the middle for some wildlife habitat. The pond is pretty much horseshoe shaped.
It looks a lot bigger now that it's cleared. What to do next....? As you can see from both the picture with the burn barrel, and also the picture which you can see the neighbors garage, this is the front of the pond. There is a lot of algae, and cattails. the front receives a lot of runoff from the yard. This side is very mucky! The back side, drops off pretty good into about 2ft or so, but also has a lot of sludge. Whats my next plan of attack, the machine? How do i keep the weeds from growing back? Future treatments of Aquapro?
