Muddy Water - 01/17/18 10:24 PM
We have an old pond on our place that generally has a gravel/sandy bottom. The pond is filled via a windmill (when it is working) and it is a dammed portion of a small stream that begins essentially right above the pond. This is the natural drainage channel for a huge area of generally flat prairie.
For some reason the water is extremely murky, I mean if I put a lure in it, I cant see the lure as soon as it breaks the surface of the water.
I have read about using aluminum sulfate, and I have read a little about building sediment traps. I would like some advice on what I might try. The pond is about 1 surface acre and ranges in depth of about 7 feet on up.
