That's amazing! Lots of work but with great reward!!  It's really beautiful and can't wait to see your updates.  What type of fish do you plan on stocking?

Thanks Pam & Kittyzee - I had some small mouth bass and various pan fish, but put them back in their lake below for the fall cleaning and winter season.. Best, fossil

That's a lot of pond!  Looks like you put a lot of thought and planning into it.

Be sure and come back next summer with new videos.  Love the rainbow!

Wow!  This is one case where you can't say "I wish I planned a larger pond!"  So worth all the work!  Awesome Job!
