I'm retired and plan to build a house on the pond. Maintenance won't be a problem.

The water table is an issue. This time of year any hole will fill with water, but things will change with the next drought.


4 acre pond 32 ft deep within East Texas (Livingston) timber ranch. Filled (to the top of an almost finished dam) by Hurricane Harvey 9/17. Stocked with FHM, CNBG, RES 10/17. Added 35lbs RSC 3/18. 400 N LMB fingerlings 6/18
