You make a good point about water temperature variance, it is something that I want to keep track of as it continues to get colder. as for my elevation it would only be around 400 feet above sea level.

And as far as predation herons don't worry me all that much given its remote location relative to any meaningful body of water. However, hawk and eagle predation would be another story.
