Great information folks, I really appreciate it. Sounds like if it cools down some I might be able to throw in some FHM in late September, if not, I could get an early start in the spring here in Texas. The pond is still coming up about an inch a day even with 100+ temps right now. Surface temp is 87 degrees. Here's a couple of pics, the water is so blue, one neighbor accused me of putting in chemicals already. I did about 20 hours of dirt work this weekend and need another 10 or so. I wish my neighbor who loaned me his tractor would have bought a bigger one! Water level should go up to about where the dog is in the one pic. I put some structure in, but I didn't take any pics given the water got all stirred up and made it look bad. I also had several visits from a roadrunner. Seemed he wanted a drink and he wanted me to leave.
