I had thought about that Esshup. I sit on top a large hill and no other bodies of water upstream. My overflow makes its way to a creek through my property which is just piney woods. The creek is still 1/2 mile away. I had a lot of grass and brush that stopped the fish from going any farther into the woods. That is where I picked them up from the grass and in small puddles. Over a couple of days of checking I ended up returning close to 400 fish. Most were one inch cnbg. Others may have their ponds "connect" a creek. You brought up a very good point. Thanks

Dear Alcohol, We had a deal where you would make me funnier, smarter, and a better dancer... I saw the video... We need to talk.
