I can't believe it has been five years since I started watching BamaBass. You are so close to a million subscribers. Thank you for bringing the fascinating outdoor world of fish and wildlife indoors on the internet world. I have a little backyard koi pond with two twenty-three year old koi, Big Bertha and Halloween, and about eleven goldfish that are about ten years old. Have a lovely weekend!
Best series on youtube
Adding rainbow trout will be chef's kiss lol. Cant wait to see
Am I the only one who wonders where the unending money comes from to accomplish these projects?
A UA-cam channel with a million subs and the views he gets is millions a year.
He has a lot of sponsors plus he probably gets a discount or something when people call the people he uses for their services🤷🏾♂️
@@fatal510not even close, some bigger channels have done breakdowns of actual income, a lot of it being sponsors but youd need a nearly daily upload schedule with each vid getting millions of views
Fr
I’m just constantly blown away by the progress from this amazing channel. This is by far my favorite pond series to watch. Full of knowledge and wisdom beyond my comprehension.
Y’all are amazing. Keep doing what your doing. ❤
Being a multimillionaire goes far.
I wanna see more
There's not many youtubers I'm jealous of, I'm okay with my life. But damn I'd be lying if I said it's not a dream to come home from work and catch a bass for dinner off my back porch. Keep at it man, I love the wildlife sanctuary you're building. It's one of my favorite things to tune in to. Maybe in some years you can open it up for visits as your crazy lil wild life reserve. Would be very cool.
Hot wife too
Same here, great channel with an enviable fishing pond and wildlife. Love his projects❤
For the new pond you should really do pretty native US species. Like Coosa Bass, Longear sunfish, Pumpkinseed, Green Sunfish, Black Crappie, Creek or Lake Chubs, Madtom catfish and others. They'd make for a phenomenal Native fishing hole as well as a beautiful North American native water system.
Bald Eagles take 5-6 years to fully develop their white head and white tail. They ONLY grow in new feathers during the summer. So this eagle you show in this video is definitely a new individual.
Dude, as far as fishing ponds or just ponds are concerned, this is like the Playboy Mansion of ponds! Your 5 acre pond is amazing! The waterfall addition pond is going to be next level! I can't wait to see more progress on this! I can't even explain how much I look forward to your new videos! So awesome! Please keep up the great work! WOW!!!!!
Dude really though thirty three thousand gallons next to the five acre. Why? he's already got plenty of activity going on around the five acre why build him another?? either way excited for the project just seems a bit much considering he's already got a five acre but hey whatever works!
I remember him fishing red drums in the delta. a brackish water fish he was gonna convert them over to freshwater. That'd be pretty cool. 😎
really??@@PurpleDrac corporate $$... i still sucbscribe... the content is awesome... but just think.... thats what we do... we schill.. thats the game
I agree
So true
If it will support Rainbow Trout, it should also support Smallies. Would love to see Smallies added to the population!
It would be to warm in that pond for rainbow trout, they would eventually die
@@broman6662 that's what I was thinking, but if it CAN support Rainbow trout, it could also support Smallies.
@@Bdub1952I'm wondering if theres some gmo'd smallies and rainbows that's can survive some heat lmao
wrong video. @repentandbelieveinJesusChrist1
Rainbow trout will survive in the 5 acres pond, fresh well water will keep it cool and it’s deep enough for them for summertime
Need this channel to be though to Netflix as a series or something
Love this series. Been watching for about 2 years and I can honestly say this is one of my favourite shows on you tube.
Top tier UA-cam content through and through reminds me of peak UA-cam when everyone was pumping out something interesting. Just a dying race of content creators.
Coming from a man that lives on the best bass fishery in all of California this man is living the dream.
Yes!
What lake in Cali would that be?
I’m a truck driver, it would have been awesome to be able to deliver one of those rock loads to ya, also building a ponds like that looks like a fun job, it looks awesome already, can’t wait to see the finished product!!
Man I was thinking the same thing and I keep my pole in my truck lol
It was on the load board for two weeks
Crimson falls sounds like a suitable name for the new Aquascape pond
Smallies would be great in the smaller pond. The rainbow trout sound amazing as well!
My day is finally complete ❤️
Idk. We got disappointed last week with no episode! And this week we just get 24 minutes????? I feel cheated! Lol
I love following this adventure from the last few years building these amazing ponds it's literally a TV show series
We actually had a show on NatGeo called Pond Stars! Now we just do UA-cam
You should keep Snakeheads in this pond because they came up to the dock every morning and evening !
they looks so beautiful with thier thousands of tiny little babies which are mostly orange in colours .
Snakeheads are also the bass of south East Asia !
By the way I'm so inspired by you and on the way to make one of this pond with tons of sankeheads , catfishes , carps and eels !
The Bald eagle seems to be around 3 years old, the little bird on the tower eating the worm is an Eastern bluebird, the Belted kingfisher is a female not a he as you called it, kingfishers are one of the few birds that the female is more colorful than the male so this one one with the brown color is a female. Love the new pond build!!!
Yes, do rainbow trout every winter. This will grow them largemouth for sure. We notice the difference how big the bass gets here after we get trout stocks. When we get no trout stocks then the fish stays small
It'd be great to see a small group of crappie in the new pond. The schooling and feeding traits would be awesome to witness.
This project and this channel just keeps getting better and better. That Auqascape pond is going to look wonderful.
WOW!! When you do something, you do it right! This is very impressive.
Can’t wait for the next one. RTR!
I’d love to see something unique in the new pond like a red drum or bowfin. The strange swimming style and spawning colors of the bowfin would look awesome on your underwater cameras.
Shoot, you could have made a whole video just about moving that cedar tree limb! I'd have LOVED to see that!!
Some of my favorite UA-camrs working together is so awesome!
Wow congrats, you outdid yourself. For the last year or so, I’ve loved watching your content. Today’s video was over the top, you’re doing some crazy work 🎉 Before we know it, it will be a state park!!
I think you did the smartest thing possible regarding the new pond: You found the best talent available and took their advice. It's looking amazing -- I can't wait to see the finished result!
It's going to be incredible!
This pond is going to be out of this world! Thank you so much for bringing us on your journey and sharing your life with us! This is amazing, I love all of your videos. 🐟
Keep using these videos to fall asleep and they keep getting recommended lmao
I don't have a pond or any fish but I love this channel.. living my dream thru you. Great Job and thank you
wouldn't the crayfish be able to walk from the smaller pond to the main pond and then burrow through the clay blanket?
My thoughts exactly. Putting any kind of burrowing animal into the smaller pond sounds like a problem just waiting to happen.
Exactly what I was going to ask, that was my first thought when I heard Crayfish. Because I remember at the start of the Main Pond build, him saying they would burrow in the clay causing Leaks. Thank you for bringing it up. Btw Enjoyed the video as always.
Yes, crayfish crawfish can walk across land to get to another water source that is near. Birds & animals can carry eggs of fish to other water sources also. I don't know why this new pond isn't just connected to the 5 acre. Having them separate means twice the work?
I mean technically that could happen naturally anyway . Crawfish are native to this area so they could get in tbe pond regardless of what he does
@@knightyper99think he wants them separated so he can keep with clear water for maybe even swimming in.
will find out shortly
Oh man, I've been waiting for this video to drop all weekend. I'm looking forward to watching this. I am so invested in this series, I love seeing this amazing family living their best life. Love and support from Manchester, England, Steven and family..🙏
Ur pond series last 2 year's been crazy..hate Sundays that u don't uploaded😂😂😂
The crawfish you put in your little pond will be in your big pond after the first good rain.
Aquascape is how I found this channel and its cools to see you guys come back together on this pond series.
Man are you in for a treat! Just mind-blowing! 🤯👍👊🤘❤️
Welcome...🖐️...been following bama for a few years now I think you be pleasantly entertained... enjoy...
Awesome!
You should definitely put some smallmouth in the new pond! Would be cool to see how aggressive some Bama smallmouthbass can get!!
You should add an alligator gar! They are so unique and I would love to see one interact with the new pond.
Oooh I'd love to see some crappy and bowfin in the new pond :) Bow fin are so fun, they're aggressive like Tiger Bass, but also active like bluegill. You could also add some catfish, although I know they can get a little out of hand but I think a few to help clean the pond would be a good idea.
Can't wait to see the new pond. Would be cool to see a catfish or two in the new pond
You know, that would be great.
I'm sorta surprised he didn't add any cats to the 5 acre pond
@@crappieaquaticlife7772 Since he is trying to grow his bass as large as possible, he isn't going to want anything in that pond that would seriously compete with them for baitfish.
@@crappieaquaticlife7772 yeah me 2. At least some channel cats
Flathead or blue cats
I think seeing some catfish, maybe bullhead, or some walleye would be really cool in the new pond!
I have a large natural mud bottom pond and had a local Aquascape contractor here in eastern PA add boulders and an additional 100ft stream for filtration and aeration. Their work is amazing!!
That's Awesome!
I'm blowing up sincerely from the first video of this channel the progress that you have been putting on is just amazing I love it
I am not a fish expert ! However I would like to see Crappie in your new pond ! We have them here in Oklahoma an they are a good eating fish, love to learn more about them ! Thanks again for all your Awesome content 👍
Yes!
I love Greg, Ed, Brian and the Aquascape crew!! They build AMAZING water features!!! You have built such a wonderful ecosystem.... KUDOS!!!! to you!!
👊
You should put lightning trout in the pond and in the summer you should put some channel catfish it would be sickk
Was going to suggest trout anyway. Love seeing the progress of this ecosystem, amazing work.
Pumped to watch it. Your videos are calming, interesting, and well made.
This must cost insane amount of money but I absolutely love it. Money well spent.
It's so satisfying to see the groundwork being laid out and then the plan coming together as things are getting placed. Thank you for uploading all this stuff.
Yes! We've been working on this for awhile!
Finally!! I haven’t had my bama bass fix in a couple weeks
this channel/project just keeps getting better!
The important thing is this: to be able at any moment to sacrifice what we are for what we could become.
I love watching this. In general I love watching things being made, built, or restored. I can’t imagine how much this guy spends on these things though, four truckloads from Wisconsin? That’s got to be a bit higher than a UPS delivery.
Fish species I’d love to see in your pond at some point:
1) Gar
2) Pickerel
3) Bullhead catfish
Bonus, just for fun:
Paddlefish
Yes!
I think gar would be awesome
Or walleye pike!@@micaiahwolfe
@@matismfimagine tiger muskies! I know they can’t breed but still.
@@micaiahwolfe if I could only choose one, it’d be gar. Gar are found in Alabama and with their unique look, they’d make a great addition to the BamaBass family.
Seeing a new BamaBass video makes me feel like I’m 6 years old walking into the family room on Christmas Day
A great name for the aquascape pond would be Majestic Falls!
Yeah definitely some rainbow trout and maybe some crappie I think ur pond is big enough to handle them. Iam hoping your channel gets big enough to do one more huge pond video . I mean like doubling the size would be insane and have it go thru the woods and gets fed by a small stream than have all the land protected habitat. This is such a calming channel when life is crazy and I mean crazy here in New York there is nothing I would rather watch than ur channel. Awesome bro
Sad to see no new fish caught but man oh man that aqua scape is going to be absolutely gorgeous. Keep up the amazing content. That entire area is going to be a treat to visit and camp around.
Cool addition to an already epic pond! Love the Wisconsin stones too! One thought: if you put crawdads in the new pond it won't take them long to make it over to your larger pond. I'll add my vote for trout. :)
Oscar’s would be cool in the small pond
Great project 👍 ❤and wonderful for wildlife insects and animals 😀.
Great night footage on the camera ❤.
Thanks for having us along 😀 greetings from England 🇬🇧 Simon and Beth ❤️ 🙋
Been a huge fan of Ed for awhile now. I can only imagine what you two have in store together!
Thanks! It's going to be awesome!
You can just see Mr. Pond Producer's brain at work with his visualization. He definitely knows exactly what he wants and how to make it happen. Excellent! ❤
Exactly why I love 🤩 watching him. he's a 🧙🏼♂️wizard! 😅
😎
It would be awesome to see more Nembwe's in the pond. Maybe see if you could get your hands on some olive "kurpers" or blue "kurpers".
You have some decent size tilapia in that one pond and if they grow comfortably like that, no doubt that any of the other Nembwe species should thrive as well.
The most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.
Species ideas for the new pond:
Longear Sunfish
Smallmouth Bass
Alligator Gar
Walleye
Northern Pine or Chain Pickerel
Yellow Perch
Sturgeon
Trout will be super cool to put in the big pond. Obviously trout would die once the weather starts warming in the spring, but they would be really cool and make great bass food.
Yeah all those fish plus some kind of cat fish
Channel catfish and bowfin would also be a great option
Sturgeon or gar would be awesome to see!!
Alligator Gar would be really cool
@@coleman_boss4589i agree Gar would be nice
this man is living every country boys dreams. Great videos
This guy must have won the lottery
Definitely some of those aggressive hybrid Crappies. Mixed with some of those tiger bass. They'll have the time of their lives in that little pond
Wow, your home projects never cease to amaze me ❤️❤️
It looks like the bayou crossing allows the deer to have less exposure as they exit from the woods and move across the field. Eventually they have to go on top of the pond ridge, but I think they stay "hidden" as long as possible.
Hi Stephen , I'm Terry from Ohio . Been watching for bout last 6 months. Even though I thought I'd subscribed before? I hadn't yet until today . Btw I have family in the Cullman Al. area. Just wanted to say hello ! And absolutely LOVE the content of all your videos !!! And for the trouble and expense of all your filming/angles !! The beauty is , you can tell it's a labor of love for you!! Looking for MANY more videos from you & your family !! I have some cool pond stories too for later? Thank You
I’ve been watching since I was a senior in high school, now I’m a senior in college.
These videos are satisfying and awesome!
I started watching you a few months ago and love your channel. Building ponds is out of reach for most of us, (and impossible for those of us living in the desert), so this is some serious eye candy.
We've actually built ponds in the desert!
@@EdThePondProfessorI saw Greg from Eastern Iowa Landscapes working with you on this project. He’s doing an awesome job on our waterfall and patio project in Iowa. Come visit when you’re in the area!
Love the videos and keep them coming for us viewers! One suggestion I think if you were to add crawfish to the 30000 gallon pond, they could make their way to the 5 acre pond, which I dont know if thats what you want. Also, is the little pond going to be tied into the larger one?
Tha smaller pond will be a separate system.
Would love to see some yellow perch! They cam also be pretty aggressive! So they could be entertaining to watch as well
Can’t have a pond without some channel cats!
Oh man... it's an absolute pleasure to see you progress with your developments! The new pond looks spectacular already and I can't wait to see it to completion. Thanks a ton for taking me along on the ride - you have no idea how much I look forward to and then appreciate watching each of your videos. And oh, yes - Rainboz Trout would be a great addition.
Can’t wait for all the content this pond will create.
I think I kinda like the new pond more than the big one. Reminds me of another YT'er that had a big, natural swimming pond that was landscaped like that & was full of Cichlids.
Kamp Kenan! We built that! They both serve specific purposes. He'll have the best of both worlds here.
@@EdThePondProfessor ah, yes! I had lost track of who that was, and couldn't find his vids again. I guess I wasn't digging far enough back. You guys did an amazing job.
@bamabass Thanks for sharing your project with us. Good wholesome stuff! It was cool to see our aquascapes builder Greg Gill on your project! Thanks for the shoutout. He’s doing an awesome job on our project. I decided to try my hand at pond build documenting after watching your channel a couple years ago. Thanks for the inspiration! God bless!
Dude! That looks amazing and I’m excited for you and the new wildlife that will join the farm! Keep up the awesome work!
My only issue with your channel is not enough videos! Hint-Hint😊
Love everything y'all are doing,take care and God Bless!!!❤😊
Catfish!!!.... I want to watch some Catfish grow and mature close up. Thanks for the pond(s) update ... Love this Series
Man Ed is everywhere on UA-cam! I saw him on The Legacy Aquarium koi pond build!
How soon before billboards appear touting "Bama Bass Water Park"? You are doing an amazing job!!
I love that theres so many deer and other animals around this. great channel
Yes! It's loaded with wildlife!
What an amazing crew. Genuine artists.
Big rocks and good water flow sounds like a good smallmouth habitat
I suggest that you use the new pond as a feeder breeder pond. Stock it with feeder fish and hope they make more to stretch out your feed.
always so much fun to watch...keep them coming
Rainbow trout and German brown trout might make an awesome addition to that pond the waterfall might even mimic their natural habitat pretty well!
It would be cool! It does get too warm down here for trout, though.
Thanks for sharing your experiences with everyone. You have a amazing property and sanctuary for animals. Love the channel.
Can't wait to see the new Aquascape pond!
Looking forward to seeing the new pond come together. Keep up the good work
Its crazy how much money and how many hours go into a project like this, to creat something that happens naturally ALL over the planet. Shows you the true beauty and power of nature.
I think you should do some koi, would be a cool change of pace from the local stuff
Been waiting for this I’m sure it’s gonna look dope
