Update: Rains and snow have kept coming and the pond bottom is covered and starting to fill with water that froze to an ice layer.... I don't think my deep spots are as deep as I'd hoped probably only 5' or so deeper than the original depth, but at full pool that should make some 10 foot deep areas... Excited for spring to see what we can get going. Starting to think that was a lot of money to spend for not a lot of improvement to the pond, but hopefully it will be worth it... Later J
