FYI...I am in deep east Texas and dug a 2 acre pond about 8 years ago now. I have ONLY about 15 acre watershed but my pond sits downhill. It has gone over my spillway maybe 4 times in 8 years. Most of the time it runs about 2 foot low. This year is record low at about 6 feet!! I have no spring and no well to assist in drought conditions. At full pool my deepest part is not quite 12 foot deep. My advice is when you plan your pond and add structure just remember...it will very seldom be at full pool!!
