Looks great!! If you have kids they will be jumping off the dock. Is your rock pile in front of the dock, far enough away so they do not jump on them?

Thanks fellas! Yeah the pile by the dock is too close. I plan on moving it. I'm near Western Illinois.

It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color. Without a sense of urgency, Nothing ever gets done.

Any updates? Have you been on the receiving end of some of this rain?

Rstringer, YES!!!! The pond came up about 18" and I can't believe how excited my boys and I got after 4 months of no rain. Its actually raining right now, with heavy rainfall expected. I can't believe how much watershed run off my pond gets from my land. I was shocked when I walked out to see a small channel of water running rampant into the pond. My FHM are doing well with fry everywhere. I added another 4# of FHM on Monday and plan on adding fish this spring.
