Thanks for all the comments folks, I appreciate it. Here's a pic from this weekend. I have some structure in now and the water has come up to about 4' either by spring or just ground water. The color remains blue and crystal clear. When full, it should be 13-15' at the deepest part. We've been getting some small rains which are helping to "melt" the loose dirt to keep it from eroding into the pond. Any ideas on ground cover to help lock in the soil here in Texas? Winter Rye? Without significant rain, it might not fill until spring. Thanks.
