Dave's pond cannot be randomly accessed. First of all, it can't even be seen, from anywhere, unless you are there. It cannot be seen from any road either. Also, it is at a complete dead end, down gravel, one lane. Posted signs all along. And to accidentally come upon it walking in would be just as low odds. The terrain is real rough, lot of hills and scrub. Plus again, no roads near it.
Good news is mission complete. Got the boat back, maybe a little better in some ways than before. I was able to fish DIED's pond and caught over 30 gsf and over 10 bg. A bit early yet. But still had a blast. Even got to share a cold St. Pauli with Dave's extended family. Missed out on a great bbq I was invited for, but long day yesterday and even longer today on reskeds to get the boat back in a committed time frame bunched up a lot of jobs.
Have some nice photos, I'll send them along to DIED and hopefully he can post them. Burning bad willows and material removed from a spillway channel all day. It's do it now or don't get it done.
