Hi everyone! I am building a home here in north Texas and am about to be the first time owner of a newly constructed pond. Here are the specs, before I start asking questions.
1.5 acres 15 ft deep Spring fed and 8 acres runoff Windy location Cows on land Not for swimming No aeration or feeding planned Planning on LMB, BG and as many FHM as I can shove in there 😬
Anyways. I have money in the budget for pre-constructed fish habitat (mossback builds 3 different ones for different size fish and depths) My questions: If money is no object, is it worth going with this synthetic habitat in order to reduce pond muck and stuff from using real wood and things like that. I have lots of mesquite trees I’d love to throw in the pond if it would help. But will that cause problems for me in the future? I do like the idea of less snags on the synthetic stuff, but not if organic is healthier for the fish. Next, how much habitat do I need? Half the pond? The whole pond ? Just around the edges? I’m excited to be here and thank you in advance for your help.
