I just wanted to say "hello" as I am new to the forum. I live in south central PA and just completed excavation on a small pond- app 1/3 acre. We have another similar sized pond on the property which is app 35 yrs old.
I cannot believe all of the great info on the web site as well as the forums. When I subscribed to PB magazine, I also purchased a few of the books offered (Pond Management and Raising Trophy Bass) and learned quite a bit. I read them cover-to-cover while on vacation in North Carolina last week. Unfortunately I learned that due to the limited size of the pond, my "Big Bass" dreams will be put on hold but I am looking forward to a healthy fish population that will provide many hours of fishing enjoyment in the future.
I really appreciate the helpfulness of those who post here and know that I can learn quite a bit by reading the many posts.
Thanks for a great web site and forum- Shaef
