To the OP. Before start digging, you need to know the layout of your land. Will you be putting in a water well? How does the land drain? How will you get any dischage overflow away from the pond?
Wind plays a big roll in a pond along with sun lite. Google pond managment. More to it then just digging a hole.

Property backs up to bayou manchac and is flooded now. I figured instead of flooding once every 10 years, I would flood it everyday and be done with it.

You should make a paint drawing.

don't stock it with anything invasive/exotic - Tilapia, etc. they will get right into the bayou. PS, Manchac is a scenic river regulated by LDWF.
