Thanks for the input on the beavers. i have trapped them in years past with a steel wire noose on their travel slips. it seems after i kill one, they move out of the pond. i will probably set some traps in the next couple of weeks in case they are in there. those conitraps look nice.

update:
im letting the soil sample dry. will have it analyzed soon. contacted lime plant. i can get delivered and spread tons for $40/ton. options are limited in my area of the state but this is the best price i got.

harvested 13 fish yesterday. total weight of 5 lbs. avg .4 lbs, .25-.69 lbs. avg length 9.8".

long way to go but you gotta start somewhere. hoping not to have to start over.

do you have a weight length table?
