Up another foot or so. Fescue and wheat are greening up and coming back. The smallmouth beds are disappearing beneath the surface. So far, so good. Water has gone green, I'm thinking that's healthy. Fish here (hopefully) in a week or two.
Maybe I picked the right builder.(hoping). Still need at least three feet of 3' of water.


9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these.
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
