Cecil, would you tell me more about your braided line method of excluding herons from your pond?
I would like to know the the distance between stakes that you've found to be optimal. Where, in relation to the waterline, should the stakes be placed. How high from the ground is the line put and how is the line best secured to the stakes? Is the line stretched extremely taut? Do you think that treated, thirty-six inch long 2x2 stakes would be adequate or would you recommend a different stake material or length?
I believe that you've posted on this before, but I think that few details were in the post, and I'd certainly prefer to benefit from your experience than to have to free-lance it, if you don't mind.
