I agree with what Bill Cody said. The wet area behind the dam in worrisome. As is the large trees on the dam.
I'd see about having a dirt ponds specialist look at it before you sign on the dotted line.
Current owner said swampy area behind the damn has been there for at least the 20+ years he has owned the property. Im not sure if that is good or bad.
I have not had any luck finding a pond specialist within a 5 or 6 hour drive of Central AR. I have reached out to the NRCS, AFGC and a few fairly local large fish farms without any real leads. Im open to suggestions...
