Even here within the PBF community, there is a wide divergence of the amount of management a pond will get. We have people here that are on the cutting edge and will do almost anything to meet their goals, all the way to close to what your state recommends.
I consider myself a novice that is somewhere in the middle of the pack as far as what lengths I will go to as far as management practices.
Of course I've completed a forage pond earlier this spring and just completed a quarter acre sediment pond so maybe I am starting to lean towards the deep end.
