Beautiful wood. I'm not real sure how to treat dense wood but bodark has one potential problem. Years after being cut it can dry and crack. I had one old wood bow explode when I drew it. Sparky, I would look into treating it on a periodic basis.

BTW, the 4th picture shows an interesting notch or something. What is that for?

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.
