When I was doing some research on dredging I came across this book updated in 2003:

http://www.amazon.com/Lake-Management-Guidebook-Steve-McComas/dp/1566706300

https://books.google.com/books?id=MLnLBQ...p;q&f=false

Has anyone ever had their hands on it? Google Books gives a teaser to the dredging section but then stops. $100+ for a book is bit steep so I am looking to learn if it is work it.

Thanks!

I would be kinda leery. A lot of this stuff is regional. Our ponds, due to locations, are very different.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

You can get lots of free info online - just be sure it is applicable to your situation first !

Two things I noticed about the book:

1. It seems to be more for lakes.

2. It does get mostly high ratings.


If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
