Good question Coupe but where my pond sits, the only water it gets either is highway runoff that is not much due to my place being on top of a hill or what rain hit in the direct vicinity of the pond. the pond is at the top(or pretty close) of the hill. This pic shows the layout. The small pond at the top of the pic is about 50-60' above the elevation of the large pond and the house in the bottom of the pic is another 10-20' above that.


It's true hard work never killed anybody, but I figure, why take the chance?
