Here is a recent pic on my middle GA property. It seems no matter what the conditions or time of year, my pond water maintins a brownish tint. Here is some pond info: Pond is fed via multiple springs and watershed, 8-10 feet deep accourding to the prior owner, about 50 years old, not many trees near the edge, surrounded by grass. I don't think it has been managed on any level for over a decade, minimum. It has stunted bass, bluegill, and carp.
Cause?
Cure?
I'm not sure I want to add gypsum, alum, etc. to try and clear the pond immediately as I suspect I may be draining it and digging out 50 years of muck.
Thanks in advance.
