Pond Boss Forums STOCKING A NEW POND Raising Forage and Bait 20 x 20 forage pond

Bill, the last time I helped Cecil seine his 1/10 ac ponds he mentioned that he wished that the sides weren't so steep.....

We stay above the pool area and pull the seine along with rope tied to the ends of the seine. No way can you walk in the pool area, the sides are too steep to stand on.

He was able to make his ponds that way because his clay soil is almost like pottery clay. They don't slough off and slide down like regular soil would.
