Well guys....
Decided yesterday she is done.
The pond is past the point of no return. I spread the word in our subdivision and told several people with children to start taking the catfish and bass out and clean them.

We are a commerical site and have the pond located in our subdivison and backs up to our motel, drilling a well isn't an option or I would do it in a heart beat.
If anyone around Lake Fork would like the tilapia for their pond, please send me a pm or contact me by email
[email protected] May need to bring a seine or I can keep what I catch from a throw net in our minnow vats.
If I ever get this going again I think I am going to make it a bluegill/red ear pond with a feeder. I wish I had a source for warmouth bream

Those are some evil fish.
Not really sure how deep I can make this pond, my father has a crew in this area and said he can drag down a couple of machines and probably finish it up in 2 days. He said he can take it as deep as I want...thinking 20foot?
