Iam a hour east of twin cities,I should have mentioned my 3/4 acre pond sits on side of large hill,5 acres slope to it and spring feeds it. All the banks are reversed so only creek/spring feed the pond.. I didn't want all the water/runoff from hills just silting I'n pond .... Then from 3/4 acre pond it all goes down hill.. Down hill for about a 1/2 mile.
