I had a phone call policy for neighbors when pond held water and had fish. Not surprisingly, nobody used this policy. As a result, just me and close family members were the only ones who regularly fished. Most trespassers whether out of town or local were and are "looky lous". The "neighbors" all know the pond died, and they all know I have now fixed it. So the pond is new, under an initial stocking process, and under strict management.....NO FISHING at all under any circumstances. I will be milking this for at least a year.
