Pond Boss Forums GENERAL QUESTIONS Help Shallow Pond in the Winter

RB,

I am fairly new to the forum. But I have an observation you may find use full. Guessing how deep it is or what somebody remembers it being has always led to disappointment. This is especially true when purchasing land with a BOW. I also have first hand experience of this. I have read lots of posting in this forum and so far I have not found a post or anybody that has purchased BOW or that has taken over pond meister duties and said wow the lake is deeper than anybody guessed. You will not know how deep a BOW is until you have sailed across it and taken soundings. IMO get the boots wet and measure everything before you make any plans.
