I too have a 3/4 to 1 acre pond and the one thing to remember is when it comes to structure as Bob Lusk always says you want to try and make a structure type highway. Make sure your structure where ever you put it is close enough to go from one to the next without the fish feeling uptight about it so to speak. For example.

I have3 brush piles near the shore on my back side of the pond between them is only about 20 feet apart. Good enough so you can cast and fish but close enough where the fish can go from one pile to the next and not feel to worried about doing so. I have like 4 different spots like that and then I have one brush pile out deeper near the middle but not in the middle I would say about 50 feet in from middle of pond. My bigger BG and bass really like that one too. Course it works for me well because I have my floating feeder about 20 feet from it and then my dock is near by also so without trying I kinda made a hwy on accident.. lol.

Anyhow I think your doing the right thing putting the lime in ahead of time if you need it it's a whole lot easier getting it in there now versus with a full pond.

Good Luck

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!!
