No problemo RB. When I was looking at pond properties in 2005 BPB (the year 2005 Before Pond Boss) I had no clue what to look at in a pond. It was just sheer luck that I didn't end up with a 5 acre pond that was 4 feet deep and filled with Crappie and Koi.
This has got me to thinking (which is a dangerous circumstance, I get into all kinds of trouble when I'm scheming about something - someday you'll have to ask JWHAP about all the adventures I've dragged her through) anyway I've got a question for the members and experts and expert members:
If you were going to recommend a "pond evaluation tool kit" what would you include in it? Here's what I'm thinking: RB is in the hunt for a pond property. I suggested that he get an inflatable boat (and obviously a paddle because he doesn't want to be up poo pond without a paddle) and a weight tied to some rope to measure depth of the pond. If you were going to put together this "pond evaluation tool kit" what would you have in it and why? Remember this needs to be portable lets say a kit that could fit in the trunk of a car (that's why I suggested an inflatable boat). What are your recommendations and why?
NOTE: Pond Boss was here in 2005 but I hadn't found it, so for me 2005 was BPB.
