I sense that all anvers asume a cnflict off intrest, is it really so? or is this youst a general way of thinking?
Can you maybe benefit from your next door neigbour, does he have some valuebale knowhow in pond keeping, that you lack your selfe?
This finger bay or part of land was for sale? but you didn't youse the oppertunetie?
If I was the new ovner of the land I would get prety piced off, if I thought that I was a part pond owner, and instead I realise I bought a conflict.
My best advice is talk to the owner, and get an agreement in a desent way, dont even think ab�ut dumping any thing or fencing him/her out for a starter, be a good neigbour in your aproach.
I was given an isle in a top clas salmon river with all rights, when I asked to buy it from the owner, 26 years ago. When I asked why his answer was, I can aford it and I enjoy your passion for the fish. And he had always considerd me a good neigbour, so my price for the land was the legal fees making the transfer official/legal
