My other option is to turn it into a wetland and enjoy it that way.
Just a thought...when I was a kid growing up near the start of the Flat Rock River, I fished a lot near the covered bridge within biking distance of our place. A guy that lived there had dug a small but deep pond on the side of the river. The Flat Rock is mostly shallow along there. He caught what the Mother Nature's floods brought to his pond and loved it. I will always remember, one wet spring, the pic of him in the local paper with a 20 pound FHC he caught in his little pond.
...so I guess the effect of flooding on his little pond was free stocking!
