Sorry fixed the picture link. I have some land in Kansas which had a silted farm pond which was overgrown to say the least. So I thought I would clean it up a bit to have a nice view for a house I want to build in a couple of years.

This is where I started.
After cleaning this is where I am at. The pond should be about a acre and about 15 ft deep in the middle and 2-3 at the edges.

Here is where I am at.
My next steps while waiting for it to fill is to seed the dam, haul in some sand for a beach area, and eventually build a small fishing pier and picnic shelter.
I wish I had found this site sooner, many of the questions I had, would have been answered before I spent the $.
But now that I've found you, I will be back!
