Anybody digging out their ponds in this drought?

If you have a big cooler you might wanna get a portable aerator from Academy (they're like, $15) or two, and start transplanting baitfish from other ponds or public waters? At least get some bait in there, give them a chance to acclimate and grow, then stock bass in.

The fish nursery is just a few miles down the road, no need for an aerator. If they were only open…

You need a mermaid. I'm sure I can get Sasquatch to dress up for ya.

What's why I suggested teh cooler & aerator - go get yourself some fish from public waters, or another pond owner who will let you - get *some* baitfish re-established in there at least.

I'd do dirty, dirty things for access to good fishin' spots

That absolutely doesn't suprise me in the slightest.

Take your excess dirt and build a swampy area for crawfish & frogs opposite your overflow. It could possible become a hog wallor.

I cant put any dirt down in that area, but I am using the fence between me and the neighbor as a filter. It’s no more than 15’ from the pipe. He already has a nice swamp.
