OK, this pond was really the victim of development all around it and probably should have just been drained 10 years ago. It's very old but they built all kinds of highways, ramps, office buildings, car dealerships, etc. all around it. The only place left for the water to go was into the drainage ditch beside the highway. The property owners have been trying to sell it for years and it was scheduled to be either filled in or drained and have a new dam built because the dam was considered unsafe - ya' think!  We've just had another 2.5" of rain this week. I'm pretty sure my pond is OK but I didn't get to go look at it today - going tomorrow morning. Too bad I never got to fish it! http://aldavison.net/fishing/AtlHwyPondBreach2.jpg Apparently I've forgotten how to post a picture - just click the link.

If you're too scared to throw that bait where the fish are, why did you tie it on?

See any fish desperate for water?
If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

there were reports of good-sized fish seen escaping but I wasn't there - a friend sent the photo to me.
