My pond almost clears to 13 to 14 inches. And then, another big rain hits with sand running in. I had it pretty well cleared for several years by dropping trees in the run off areas. The last 2 years of heavy rains makes everything a run off area. Two weeks ago visibility had gotten to about 14 inches. However, we have had 6 inches of heavy rains in the last 10 days. Now, a chrome lure disappears at about 4 inches.

But, I'm not whining. 5 years of drought are hard to forget.


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.
