I didn't know where to post this question, but i notice a bunch of small holes along the edge of my pond, and there is a lot of bubbles coming up from them. Do any of you have any ideas to what it could be?

Depending on the size of the "small" holes, and given your location, I'd guess "mudbugs" (crawfish).

that was my first thought also, i put around 15 sacks of crawfish in the pond. but the crawfish holes have mounds around them, and i dont see a bunch of bubbles coming from them, its the dime sized holes that have no mound and a bunch of bubbles coming from them.

Take a short length of fishing line; crimp a split-shot on one end (ballast); wrap & bind a small piece of bacon around the split-shot and drop it down the hole as far as it will go.
30-sec later, slowly withdraw the bait and see if something is attached to it.

...then boil water, drop crawfish in. If no crawfish...eat the bacon.
