Just bought 100 acres and I’m looking to build a 1.5 th 2.5 acre pond no trees to clear. Anyone able to give me a guesstimate of what that will run? There are some massive watersheds in the area that the army core of engineers put in and tons of ponds in the area so I’m assuming the soil I’d pretty good. There are tons of rocks on top of the soil so I’m not sure what that means... 123 go!

4000-5000 acre??? That might get you a hole-but not a "pond".
I feel I can safely say digging the hole is the easy part. What you do with the basin after that is what matters, but you need to be looking ahead at several things that I can tell you by experience, doesn't come to mind until the problem presents itself.
I would HIGHLY recommend you give a gander at the resource guide, find Otto's dirt work/construction, give him a call and talk it over.
If you've never built or managed a pond, get someone involved-hands on-that has. I strongly feel you will regret it if you don't.
