Tried DB-100 last year and bentonite years before and my pond is still leaking this year. After talking to Bob and discussing the idea of a toe trench (french drain)....I decided that I would have one installed this year. So far it seems to be the best investment I've made to deal with my seepage. Pond still leaks but atleast the water goes where I want it. Only wish I would have done it sooner.
Here is a pic of the north side trench.
Here is a pic of the water being diverted (before gravel and pipe was added).
Here is a pic of a trophy and there were more which is most likely the cause for the seepage.
I may experiment with other magic 'stop leak' solutions later but for now I'm happy to mow without any problems.
