Hi everybody my name is Robert Cardin and I live in Evergreen, Alabama. I built a pond last year that once full should cover about 5 acres and be 12-13 ft deep at the dam. Alabama red clay is sticky but apparently it still lets water through it. Had it dry but couldn’t get any heavy equipment in to pack it before the rain started up, so we did what we could with a mini excavator (which ain’t a lot). Anyway it’s filling up better now but still got a good leak (about like a water hose running). On here to learn about pond stuff in general, stocking tips, management tips, ect. Maybe one day I’ll get the leak fixed and I can stock it again.
