We had a lot of rain last June. I started building a one acre pond behind my 3/4 pond and when the 3/4 acre overflowed, I followed the buzzards to past the new pond to three catfish of two or three pounds one about five pounds and two pound live one. When the new pond dried up (I wasn't finished and had only the topsoil off) I found two more four or five pounders. Seven catfish that I found and they were all large ones.
