Boy it took me 6 years and becoming short of an Expert, Topo maps and engineering, forestry and logging industry, pond management...ect...It has been quite an educational experiance....The first lake I owned was already built and stocked it was 2 hours and 15 min away...This second one is only an hour away comes with more land, and the lake is bigger. I built it from start to finish. I can tell you it was involved every step of the way...

By the way...yes I would do it all over again on another different tract of land..
