We ended up not wanting to lose those 3 trees, so we built an island around them and extended the pond behind them. Don't judge the floating pallet..its a makeshift boat dock for our pond hopper..gotta find something better...any suggestions?
This last image shows we extended the initial end of the pond, and ended up just making a small round island in the center..
The general depth of the new area should be 1-3 feet when full, perfect for bass ambush areas..
While the area was being dug, the bulldozer decided to go for a dip in the pond..
it took 2 trucks and just tow straps to get her out again... We called a wrecker and for them just to come out for 1 hour was $300... luckliy it was high enough out of the water for the engine not to flood...so it pulled out ok. So thankful for great neighbors!
