Thanks. The pond will be 5+ surface acres when full. It was built in a lowish area where mining of surface gravel occurred 10-20 years ago. Took 10,000 cubic yards to build the dam. I want to say the dam itself is ~1000 feet long. The entire trip around the pond is about 1/2 mile. Deepest water will be ~15 feet, with an average depth of 6 feet. ~~~~ it's been lots of fun designing and creating structure, but much less fun watching only 5 1/2" of rain in 6 months. When we get into a normal rainfall pattern, this puppy should fill up, stay watertight, and be clear. ~~~~ Best thing about the lack of rainfall is that I may get the opportunity to build a dock before the water fills.
