We are so lucky with neighbors at our place. They really watch out for us. My biggest fear is that they are going to try and "help" me with fish stocking. I'm contemplating putting up signs.. We have no fence, no gates, we are on a blacktop, but it turns to gravel past us, and goes in a loop. We are one of the few part timers out there, everyone else is full time, and keeps their places up very nice. I mow every week, just so we are not the eyesore around there. Most of our neighbors have all become good friends. Definitely much more of a community type atmosphere than in town.


9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these.
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
