Bentonite works real well
yes it does. all those "sharkey" soils work really good for ponds. but truck loads of bentonite cost way more than salt.
i had a truck driver working for me that went to weeks island and got it for just a few $/cu yd.

Somebody explain this salt thing to me. Salts stop clays from swelling. They will make them like concrete on the surface as you can see in oilfields where salt was just dumoed, but the water dissolves the salt out of the clays. This sounds like a bad idea to me, but I could be wrong.
