This could be the start of a great thread.

I would build a pond hoping for snakes to invade. I need target practice.

Not much is more fun than shooting water turtles.

It an old rice field so I have about 2 feet of topsoil and then a really good clay base underneath. I need a lot of clay to build up my pad bc I have to dig out the topsoil of the pad also and then fill in. I should hold water. I have a creek nearby that will be my overflow. I think if I dig it 8-12 feet deep it should hold water all year.

Small pond. Dam on the right



Pond to the right of the above one, they share a dam with a culvert through it. This one has a pretty large dam around the back and right side



Big pond/lake, couldnt find a pic of just the lake, but you can see the dam behing this HOIST, and thats not me, my buddy caught this 6.5 lb out there a couple weeks ago
