Hey, how many people want to join me for a big pat on the back for Bill Cody? We all know how knowledgeable he is. However, it sure seems to me that he has been putting a lot of extra time and effort into answering so many questions right now! Thanks, Bill!!

Ah shucks - Thanks guys. Although regularly puttin in time here has distracted from my writing articles for PBoss mag. There is only so much time in the day to get things done. It seems Bob currently has plenty of articles to choose from for the PB issues.

Even if not for all the destroyed Spaces Shuttles, Cody's the one!

Love everyone of Bill's posts. He doesn't know it yet, but when my pond is finished he can take most of the credit.

I consider Bill a great friend.
When I first came to Pond Boss years ago, the first people to greet me were Bill Cody and Cecil Baird -- and they gave me a lot of good advice.
At the first Pond Boss conference, as we approached the hall entrance, the doors were opened for my wife and me, accompanied by hugs from Sunil who opened the doors. As we entered the conference hall, Bill greeted and seated us. At lunch, he made sure we knew everybody.
I sure don't want to leave anyone out, so I'll stop there with names. My wife and I've met some incredible and incredibly wonderful people through Pond Boss.
Bill Cody is at the very top.
Maybe I can entice Bill to bring his "yacht" over the state line one day so we can fish a few ponds over here.

One of my most memorable Pond Boss events was working with Bill on the SMB series of articles in the mag. Bill is fun to work with and has a fantastic sense of humor. Come to the convention and meet him. As great as Bill is here on the Forum he is even better in person.

I agree with everyone that knows and has met Bill. He is extremely smart, and a real nice and humorous person to be around.
Just do it...

Lots of things that he is the "go to" guy. A great guy and a good friend.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

I wish Bill lived on a neighboring farm...for all the advice he's given me he'd never have to mow his lawn or move snow, that's for sure. Thanks Bill.

I absolutely second everyones praise. I have been a member now for less than a week, and Mr Cody has already given me very precious information to succeed on my current project. Glasses high in a toast to you Mr Cody! Thanks for all you do!

I met Bill and was extremely impressed by him. If one can have an idol in the pond world Bill would be the one.

Bill is the man! He is amazingly knowledgeable but humble. A true gentleman and a mentor in my eyes.
