Unfortunately yes. I've lost about a 12-13" of water in the last 6 weeks. We haven't had much in the way of rain so I suspect some evaporation.

The pond was in a constant state of filling from August 21' until about March 22'. Any rainfall we had rose the water level. Of course, the surface area was much smaller then. Even with a wet spring and summer, would come up a 1-3" and fall back down. The only real way I think we'll know is when the ground freezes again. Lack of run-off has always been an issue especially since half of my runoff acreage is covered by trees.

I figure we still need 1-1.3 million gallons to achieve full pool. If the pond fluctuates a foot or so over the summer from full pool, I wouldn't mind that all.
