I never said they had to do an island I said quote "that was all up to them" dang it man.....
LOL
The guys are right though and island would take up a bit of room. If you could go 1.5 to 2 acres I may consider it if it were me... but you could also maybe look into a couple small peninsulas instead of an island... fish specially bass love peninsulas and they don't have to be that big.... bottom line is it's your pond have fun with it be creative and keep us posted.
