Well, years ago the pond had fish, lots of bullhead (and i'm not talking about the owner now ) and some bass. The pond got real low one year and a herion snatched all the fish, like i said the cows left and apparently the pond just died. Its got a lot of snakes and a couple of big snapping turtles and lots of frogs. I love to hear the frogs croak at night.
I have been toiling with the idea of a pump, drawing down the water and going in with my loader and clearing the bottom. Did a bit of scraping around this spring and there is hard bottom under the silt. Going to be a lot of dump trailer loads with this project.
Right now thats the depth and water is down quite a bit. No snow last winter iscausing a problem with water level in the ponds. . . .John
