I'm in the same boat Ross, no pun intended, I can only get to the dam and maybe 1 or 2 other spots on my lake, Ive had a lime truck back up to the dam and sling it as far as he could, exactly like Ewest's pic shows, I haven't taken water samples lately but I'm sure I could use some lime, I have several ditches, valleys, running into the back end of the pond, I have thought about taking a loader and dumping lime in those ditches, make the incoming water run across it, maybe eroding it into the pond, a little at a time, what gives me the idea that it would work is anytime you have a hard rain, the water running down or off of a limestone graveled rd the water will be almost white running off. that running into my pond should help my ph. no? or am I crazy?,, dont answer that. Ive been accused of worse.


All the really good ideas I've ever had came to me while I was milking a cow.
