Hey Kart Welcome!!

Two first questions are very good ones! Water shed can you handle a 5 to 6 acre pond? And the dirt some of it can be used for the dam but that's a lot of dirt to move / do something with do you have a spot for it?

My first advice for you. Check soil make sure it can hold water, how far down do you have to go to hit good clay?

Make sure you hire someone that knows how to build ponds NOT just move dirt... Unless your doing it yourself?

Remember, bigger isn't always better when it comes to ponds the bigger they are the more expensive it usually is to manage it or fix it!!

Glad to see another Arkansan on the PBF!!

The only difference between a rut and a Grave is the depth. So get up get out of that rut and get moving!! Time to work!!
