Sorry George I haven't been able to get on here I have been so busy at work. Now that the oil and gas has slowed down I can work on my pond again. I really like the idea of a catfish kinda keeping everything in check. I will have to try and do this. I was kinda worried about the CNBG surviving over the winter but spring came and it looked like I still had most of them if not all of them.
Hi Clay, good to hear from you but just maybe you needed a work break to get back on your pond project.
Glad to hear your CNBG survived a harsh Texas winter - good news!
Here is my latest project - a 12v solar powered surface aerator system - working like a charm!

I know the Wolfcamp/Sprayberry trend well - like drilling into layer cake.
Good work break until things pick back up - enjoy your creek ponds!
Let me know if there is anyway I can help even if unfamiliar with ponds in your part of the country.
Best,
George
