BM,

I haven't used that pond scoop, but have used one similar. A word of caution when scooping...its awful easy to get that front end of the tractor off the ground and can even flip on you if not real careful. Pulling up a grade with a load/drag is dangerous on most small tractors. Use caution and if you feel that front end coming up, back off. We want to keep you around here for awhile!
