Got confirmation from Jones that I can pick up a pound of FHM on the west side of Indy on their 1st "fish days" in a couple weeks to add to my 4th pond. Was 12 F this morning and will be up to 50 F tomorrow, Dang cold out their right now! Hopefully you won't have to hand sort the FHMs to only pick the ones wearing mittens! (Actually, it looks like a big warm up is headed your way.)

Just an update on my 4th pond. It appears that my "leaky" pond is becoming less "leaky". Due to low rainfall amounts, the pond never reached full pool this year and was always at least 1' down from that. We are currently in a "severe drought" according to the state and this pond is only 2' down from full pool. Either the springs are running better or the pond is holding water better. I do know that the shallow aquifer is down quite a bit since my artesian well stopped flowing. Never was able to locate warmouth nearby for this pond, so only FHM in the pond so far. Was out pulling cattails and phragmites seedlings today. Not sure where either came from in a former crop field, but I know that cattail seeds can lay dormant for many decades.

BTW - something is very wrong with the Pond Boss forum. I now have excellent internet and sometimes loading the forum is very very slow. You all need a real expert to find out why. If you have more traffic than you want, then disregard my post.

RAH - Yes you are correct. The PB Forum is currently operating very slowly. Hopefully someone smart is working on this problem.
