We put an 8x12 fishing shed this last summer to house fishing gear, fish traps, kayak, etc. next to the dock.

What I would like to add for 2016 is a fish cleaning station next to this shed. Maybe something like sprkplug did, with a roof, table, sink, concrete floor and a frost proof water hydrant to hook up to the sink.

Another pond has been in the "maybe" stage. Crops were on the proposed site this year and my foreman ask "could we at least get the crops off before you do?". So I held off this summer. That and the dozer stayed pretty busy and wife and I did a lot of motorcycle traveling. So no extra pond in 2015. Maybe 2016. I have mixed feelings about it. Have no problem at all building it as I enjoy running the equipment and have a 12 yard scraper and D6NXL dozer. My hesitation is that with the ponds we already have, geese and waterfowl are already a problem at times. I can just see that problem increase by putting another pond basically between our 3 acre pond and our old refurbished one acre pond. That is my biggest hesitation. One more pond to run off birds. It may get done anyway. Will see. If I see the dozer and scraper sitting there not doing anything and I have time on my hands, the temptation to move some dirt may be more than I can resist. Likely will be between 2/3 and 1 acre in size.
