The only difference between a rut and a Grave is the depth. So get up get out of that rut and get moving!! Time to work!!

Brian, congrats!! Know it or not you have achieved what most pond owners REALLY want, a place for friends, family and especially kids to want to come to and have a blast. I built my pond with the idea of walkin out the door and havin a bit of Canadian type fishin. Little effort, lots of fish. Now that my pond has evolved into a very good fishery I barely care to fish it but let my grandkids come out or a buddy wantin to bring his kids/grandkids and does the ol pleaure meter jump. Keep up the good work but try to get a relief cleaner to jump in now and then. Bob-O

Hey Rookie, nice offer. Sorry but I grow fish, don't clean em. When I was a kid my bro in law was a park ranger in a national park called Hot Springs(may have been the name of the town), ever heard of it? That was the only encounter I've ever had with a rattler and hope the last.

The hills are a good place to be. There are no hills in NE IN but my nearest neighbors are about 1/4 mile away and that's too close.
