Bob, it’s pretty deep. Has to be 30’ deep. It actually joins in with the ravine my pond is built on, but off of my property. If I try to go upstream on this ravine it gets much further away.
I guess if I had unlimited resources I could make it work, but it’d be easier to run electric and put in a well.
Hopefully we will just not have another drought for a while, but northern MO seems to get regular dry spells.
It’s like TJ said, I don’t think it’s worth worrying about. So far, even when down five feet, the fish are fine. We can still enjoy a swim. Maybe I should dump rock all the way around it as the level drops. It’s nicer to look at than the mud.
