Welcome jammer, I am a pond owner and want you to know it is a great way to enjoy your property. It looks to me from your picture you will have a great view.
Good luck on the time spent with maintenance but the pond will grow on you, and just draw you in. It is worth it.

You already have some good help and I wanted to thank RAH for the picture,great place.

You did not mention if you have a well or even need one, with the good runoff potential I see from your picture.

With fewer fish and no feeder you will have less time needed to address pond issues, as an observation.

I'm going with fixed dock due to kids and us older types needing stability.

Lot's of good info in the archives, if you find the time.

I watched a guy on Youtube that had taken pictures several times a day, from the same location, over the weeks it took for his pond build. It was really neat when he spliced them together in a video. Everyone here likes pictures,me too and good luck.

Life is more fun with a pole in your hand.
