listen to Bob, he knows a lot more about that soil stuff than i do! I would like to add, save those cedar trees when you doze, don't burn all of them,,, put them back into the pond for cover. i found out that those cedar trees float pretty dang good. so i went to my local concrete plant and got..for 60 cents each...concrete blocks with plastic like wire running through them to anchor them down. the game and fish guys around here use them to sink structure on bull shoals and norfork lake. a whole lot easier and cheaper than making your own. mark
