3f farms
Glad to have you on board.

Like AdamsLand said plan the shore line first.
Put the, good material in the front and past the center. There is always some dirt that needs to go on the back side of the dam.
The dirt man will need to help you with the compaction on the dam.
A drain pipe in the dam will make it easier to relax while the dam is being built. Dirt work is like farming you are always playing beat the weather.

Take pictures and keep us posted.
