Then figure out what the lowest water level was in the ponds as your temporary "full pool level". Then make the ponds the appropriate depth from that full pool level. I dug mine down 22', it filled in 2' to 3' with sediment from Hurricane Ike, and I still had 11' of water even tho my pond was down almost 6' last winter. www.hoosierpondpros.com http://www.pondboss.com/subscribe.asp?c=4 3/4 to 1 1/4 ac pond LMB, SMB, PS, BG, RES, CC, YP, Bardello BG, (RBT & Blue Tilapia - seasonal).
