I think you probably understood correctly because that is my goal. Except I view it more as a supplemental food source because there will be many other sources. But most importantly, my goal is sustainability over the long-term. I'd rather have a pond that provides a small portion of food over the long-term than a pond that provides a large portion of food temporarily. With that in mind, are you thinking that might not be a viable goal with a 1/2 acre pond?
