I have been reading everything I can on here, and purchased three books to date, but the one thing I still have yet to understand is this.
If the area I am thinking about building a 5 acre pond is a natural bowl, with a natural wetland excape (below the surface I suspect) Do I still build a dam with a core, or just remove the top soil, process soils and add additional clay?
I see pictures of ponds in "Perfect Pond Want One?" where it appears the whole side is a "dam" too, I really hope I don't need to do that into each hill.
