About 17 acres in main body with 5 sediment ponds totalling maybe 4 acres feeding into it. I stocked all sediment ponds with fathead minnows and grass shrimp. In some of them, fathead minnows became thick. All except one had pipe of some diameter (most 14") draining from sediment pond to main body. The dam on one without pipe quickly washed out in one spot and drained to big one. Three of others had water backup to drain pipe and fathead dissapeared. One with 14" outlet pipe about 4 vertical feet above main water body had fathead minnows longer, but they eventually disappeared too. Not sure why, but suspect predator fish got there somehow. Worth trying. I will try again at some point.
