Full Circle if there is anything you want in you pond before it fills you want to plan ahead. In my case I had two dump trucks loads of sand for my beach, a dump truck of limestone gravel ready to spread in segments around the pond for bluegill to spawn on and a dump truck of softball size stone for fish to hide and mess around in. I had rocks, stones, brick and blocks ready to build several artificial reefs, and I had my 6x6 posts for my deck screen house ready to dig in. Once the water started to rise I still was almost in a panic to get things finish before they were under water. And when the pond is dug it's hard to tell just where the high water line is going to be so that has to be figured and marked so you can tell where everything goes.
