Our pond is about 1/2acre spring fed(probably 1gal/min), 12'deep in middle shallow shore on south end, drop offs on north and east ends, and shallow bay 4' on west end. It currently has a good population of LM bass and Bluegill, and has sustained itself for at least 15 years. In the summer months we have to control the weeds otherwise they will cover the shorelines and sometime the algae will cover the surface of the pond. Water clarity in the summer is usually around 5-6ft.
My question is if a windmill for aeration will help our pond and if there will be any negative consequences to adding one. Will it also help with weeds and algae in the summer? And if it would help in the summer are there benefits in S,Wi to leaving it on all winter?
Thanks,
Aaron
