Norm,
My first priority is a nice place to swim. 2nd priority would be having a nice bass fishery for now. Want my 8 and 5 yr old and friends to be able to catch some fish.
Looking for low maintenance. The pond did well for me last year (first year it was full after making existing pond 3 times bigger). Swimming was great. And there were hundreds of baby bass. Kids had some luck catching the small ones.
Heres some pictures (no fish in them)
