Thanks for the comments .. to answer the questions .. no I had not planned on any lime being added given the whole 20 acres has a limerock base .. this project just kind of developed because of the availability of huge flat rock .. I buried it in places in the beginning .. trucked it away for some of the local farmers for rip rap later . then thought may as well use it myself .. project just grew and grew from there .. was not an avid fisherman so did not have any real goals for fish but have become very interested since I started reading this forum ..again suggestions for a rookie are always appreciated .. some more pics

House will go behind the excavator in the second pic
The ravine carried the water away for all these years and the dam will go at the head of it in the first pic ..


No such thing as a problem .. just opportunities
