Well, an unfortunate set of circumstances are bringing this project back. So, we have a local dirt digger who I use a lot for work that I had come look at the pond the other day. Turns out he is also a pond builder, he answered every question I could think of from reading here and even had a few additional thoughts/advice on my situation. He is one of the more respected contractors in this area, so of course he stays very busy. He is planning to come clear and grub the overgrowth as soon as he has a free day and then we'll get everything laid out for when he can do the pond, we're thinking late summer/early fall. In the mean time, I'm going to start getting the pond pumped down and ready. The Golden Shiner population has exploded here and I'm wanting to try to keep some for stocking in the new pond, does anyone have a good setup for keeping them temporarily?
