i have been around, as in Peru for Christmas (Incas knew sex stones, and the Urubamba river to Machu Pichu was in flood stage which was almost better than MP) and several trips to Salala last year, built a new pond on my farm with interesting outflow (hope it works, its purple) and hopefully i will have some interesting fountains and irrigated back door gardens as the new pond is 15 feet above the old pond and the back door
maybe a couple Iowa links for your winter study

http://www.kloubecfisheries.com/index.htmlI never made it here, but I want to visit these guys, and I think theres alot here for ya'll to consider, do not miss the koi pages, videos, and talk about turning your farm into as many ponds as possible, just dont buy those plants
better hit my local aquaculturalist too, Todd is great, and i have been to his place many times, this is a unsoliceted plug, but it is photos of northstar in the ISU pdfs, and it is a 3rd generation place
http://www.northstarfishhatchery.com/oh, and closed on the rock quarry lake(s) , which remains amazing on many levels, for example observed about 30 bald eagles at one time, other times, with stiff winds into cliffs, they practiced acrobatic flying, amazing, and sometimes i couldnt see them but could hear them, and the duck flock being quiet holding the last open water hole at sunset on Dec31 they were chockablock, got the dynamite shack outofthere, and the directional driller testers too (not enuf income but was still more than 0, but there were other issues with them) but didnt have the birthday party
the following link revealed the lakes are 44 and 42 acres
