Yeah I was kidding myself...STILL too deep to seine. The banks are darn near vertical for the first 7-8 feet.

Moved the trash pump down the bank 6 feet or a bit better, replumbed using 3 inch PVC the whole distance, and NOW we're moving water.

here's what I was using:



Re-plumbed to this and more than doubled the water movement ratio:








Of course it's going to rain this week so I'll have to do a little recovery pumping...but I'm down far enough now that another 10 hours or so and she'll be ready for seining. I'm going to time it so that we do it on Sunday as that looks like the best day weather-wise.
