I have got my pond site selected, probably end up being about 3/4 acres. my only concern now is how well it will fill up. just by a rough estimate i would say 2-2.5 acres of land slope towards it. and it is all mostly sandy clay still packs good though. I am planning on running downspouts and foundation drains in to the pond as well. DO I need worry about having enough water to fill/ keep it filled? I would hate to have an expensive dry hole. I figured worse case I could wait and see what it does then have a well dug if needed. thanks chris
