I’m also wet this year at my 133 acre place South of Bowie Texas. Full ponds is a rarity. Went there yesterday and found full ponds with water still running in and over flowing. FINALLY!

We have had some serious storms with rain and high winds in the last week.And, we got another 3.6 inches last night that all ran off. Grandsons used the tractor to pull a broken big oak tree out of the pond. It’ll become firewood. Also have several other broken over big oaks to work on. Looks like more storms coming. OK with me.

Adding here. I have an ancient camper trailer that my son in law hauls to Fort Worth at Christmas. He puts it in his front yard, decorates it and has a sign that says “Santa sleeps here.” Lots of people bring kids by and take pictures. It stays on blocks in my pasture. Wind blew it off the blocks and is on the ground. That has to be redone.

No idea how many busted trees on the place.

It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
