Is it just the pictures, or is the elevation of the trees below the elevation of the spillway?
They're below. That's why he was hesitant to build the spillway up. I said to just remove the trees, but he thinks when it's at full pool after a big rain the closest tree will bee in 6"-1' of water. When it levels off most of the year, the water should be about 1' shy of the top of the spillway and ride that lip on the point off the tree.

I recommend that you rent or borrow a transit and shoot the spillway high water mark first and then transverse all the way around the pond to see where your water level will actually be. Stake out the high water point about every 100 feet to see where your actual shore line will be and your pond depth at various locations. That transit doesn't lie.
