he sent me a video of what looks like a bunch of fish hitting the surface in his pond, and this was BEFORE he put any fatheads in.

Hopefully, you don't have early colonization but you should expect fish to wash down from that pond if it has fish. Does that big pond also drain into the smaller pond? Anyways, filling so late in the year like this is a good thing as that would lessen the impact of early colonization if it were to happen.

Pretty dang cool what you were able to do in the power line easement. Kudos to you.

Sunil had been a tremendous help and yes we do go off forum. He recommended we bring it to the forum. As far as it being bugs and my lengthy observations, bugs are not evident. If fish washed down from my neighbors smaller pond, I have a hard time accepting the numbers. In the evening, the amount of “rings” is tremendous in all corners of the pond, pond is estimated at 1.7 acres. And it’s gonna grow when water level hits the over flow.

Frogs and tadpole is abundant
