    To prevent erosion you need to run a 40' or 60' stretch of blue tarp under the water pipe down to the lowest section of the pond, tie two ropes to each end and buoy's to the other end of the ropes. When the water gets to the level of the inlet you can pull the tarp and not have any issues with erosion.
    Also, if you want to map your pond then Drone Deploy is the best app. You can use your DJI, fly the mission, and it will create a topographic layout for you. 10/10 recommend the software, and they may sponsor you if you were to use their product.

      All he needs to do is get some large culvert pipe and link it up all the way down to the bottom and maybe put some large holes here and there in it on the top of the piping. Kinda like a big water slide you see at water parks. He could just split the pipes too and do that.

    • @Something-Somes
      @Something-Somes 2 місяці тому

      @@donnyroberts4248 Actually erosion will still happen that way. There will be erosion no matter what. You want to find the best way to spread out the water flow rather than focus in one place. The rocks will also sink and slide. Flair already found that out once. Its better to diffuse with fountains and diffusers to be honest but the culvert option could also double as tunneling for fish as long as it stays sunken when the pond is full. The plastic culvert is not my favorite option but many pond builders use it.
      I liked to make stone lean-tos and underpasses. Little fish caves too. That is a different topic but yeah...a cement culvert canal would be ideal but he did not go thick enough with the clay to support the weight of it. He could use unilocks or brick though...those are light enough.

    Lay some cement culverts in the deepest area, scattered out for catfish and others to use. Put piles of rock/cement chunks along with boulders throughout the pond at different depths and use chunk rock down the entire slope of the dam. Add artificial and/or natural brush, trees and plants near shallow areas.

    Your pond is coming along nicely Andrew. Personally with the ponds we built on my land years ago, we cut a big tree down and sunk it right in the middle of our deepest parts so the Big Flatheads and Blues would have plenty of shade and a place to ambush the other fish in the ponds. It's worked out great for many years now. Best of luck of whatever you decide.

  • @MyBackyardScience
    @MyBackyardScience 2 місяці тому +23

    One critical thing to remember is to make sure that you set up your water input so that it will not erode your bank. The way you did it last time caused a lot of erosion and will wash away the good work and waste your money. Think this one through to find a good solution. Bama Bass has his water rising up from the deep part of his pond. Maybe run hose down to the deepest part with some kind of diffuser, at least until the water fills up over your south ledge. Those are my thoughts, but I'm not a pond expert (yet). Seek professional opinions regarding this. We want this to be a success for you! 🙂

    Make sure to install a water fountain system somewhere in your backyard pond so that it will help to produce oxygen and control algae growth. As far as structure, I'd put a large drainage pipe on the bottom to give your catfish and Predatory fish a place to hang out and feel more comfortable. Go by any bass pro shop and check out their aquarium for ideas.

    Gravel bottom for some walleyes and perch, then a couple pipes for catfish so they arent rooting in the muck. Also 2 to 4 grass carps to manage the plant growth in the shallows. And if you want some small fighter fish that taste good, gravel around the inflow, and add some brookies. Also don't forget to try and plant some millet and smart weed along the 3 foot up range to draw in the ducks

    Seed that whole pond basin with 60% rye grass and 40% buck oats to super charge the forage base for your fish! It’ll also help with soil erosion. 3 to 5 tons of Ag lime per acre helps so the water is good for the fish. 18-36 inches with a secki disc is ideal clarity

    You can do some man made structures like wood cribs/boxes catfish love them and so do crappie I definitely recommend some live plants but don’t go crazy with them. Maybe next to the boat ramp add a dirt plateau on top of the clap to plant in the sunken trees is an awesome idea. And you should do some big boulder structures as well as some medium sized rocks. The big boulders work well for your medium large bass/gills to maneuver and hide while the medium small rocks allow your small spawns to get away from predatory fish allowing them to get large enough to not be killed. No matter what you do this pond will be stellar and I can’t wait to see the end result

    I used to run a directional drill rig that would bore pipe under roads and driveways, etc. and we would add bags of bentonite to the to the water that we used to drill with, it was used to seal the bore hole and not let loose material fall into the hole. The best I can remember is when it dried it was almost like a soft concrete if that makes sense. Good luck!

    18' deep with cold water right there sounds perfect for some walleye. One of the best walleye fisheries in the world is lake erie and it averages 15' deep. Be amazing for your catch and cooks plus they live with bass no problem. The pond looks amazing and truly cant wait to see what you end up doing with it. But very happy for you to get something so nice right in your backyard. Also walleye love rock/stair ledge structurce so the edges of ur boat road lined with layered rock would be amazing for them. And the rest of structurebplans sound fantastic for bass/crappie/sunfish

    Flair, where are you going to add the feeding spots for the pond?

  • @joshallen1913
    @joshallen1913 2 місяці тому

    Feel like a mixture of both natural and some artificial as well as mixing stuff between shallow to deep. Some shallow bigger rocks and gravel will be good for bluegills but early spring those shallow rocks will warm up quicker allowing other stuff for the fish. Some deep big boulders in the middle with a few thick logs for some big cats or big bass to go hang around. Make options available to choose

  • @dillonrogers6715
    @dillonrogers6715 2 місяці тому +1

    For the deep spot you should have a small little rock hump for the bass to sit on the sides on and maby put a little brush pile in the middle of the hump

    My only thoughts on the layout of the brush and rocks is that nature is not perfectly consistent in this case. Some rocky areas and cover are good, but maybe concentrate them more in specific places to encourage fish to congregate where they prefer and you know where to look for any one species, as well as add a little bit of each everywhere to simulate nature. Every lake and pond has a "honey hole" for a specific species where they like to stay.

    I'd take the recycled concrete as a base and get big limestone ledges and pile them towards the edge in couple places where you can stand out and fish from. I'd check but get some aquatic plants.

    Just make sure you tie down the trees and shrubs with cinder blocks so it doesn't float. But I wouldn't put too much stuff in the pond because of algae that will grow, and it could make it harder to keep it under control.

    Make trees out of PVC pipe and weigh them down in the pond. Makes great place for fish and won't hang up as bad and last forever pretty well. Put weighted plastic barrels for catfish to nest in in the bottom.

  • @BryceMcAllister998
    @BryceMcAllister998 2 місяці тому +1

    Definitely need to do a lot of artificial or real rock formations to make caves and structure for catfish and the big bass that love to live deep. Maybe a tree cabled to cinderblocks along the bottom at the 18-14ft spot, random clay pots all over the bottom so crawfish can hide in them I stead of burrows. Also provides bass a good cold water winter feed. Those big black industrial tubes that are like 2 ft wide, hook them up to some eight and out deep water tunnels for the catfish, there’s a lot of Stucture you can do in the very bottom just make sure you add weight so it will stay

  • @duane.pearce

    You should put something around it to slow down rain water. because without grass the rain water will erode your ponds clay layer as it comes down the hill.

    Looks good! Your plans seem to be great ideas that will work. Like the idea of cutting down trees and having them as lay downs. On the road bed maybe throw some rock on it to simulate an old road!! Can’t wait to see how it all turns out!, one other thought, where the water comes in have a lot of rock to keep from erosion and have water leaking out. Stay Safe & God Bless!! 🤠👍

    Put a train car at the very bottom of the pond. Great coverage for smaller fish yet also a unique twist for the fun of it. The way you ended up doing this is rock solid and has all the potential to be the real brute bakery. So excited to see the future of it.
