Yeah I built a few ponds for customers years ago. They were cool and nice but a PITA for me to maintain. But they were nothing like what the pond companies are building today. And the professional products weren't really available here yet either.Yep hence all the dealers have them in super clean plastic bins.......not even close to a natural habitat.
The dirtiest ones I've seen where at Pond Country in Greensboro area. By the looks of the entire facility they seem to have let managing the property get away from them. Our little oasis would cost 12 to 15 thousand dollars by what we saw.
I had a serious fetish in my teen years with aquatic landscapes which led to many projects of landscape at my parents....they never let me build a pond. So when I married a women capable of being invested in my interest I dug a hole.
I've really toyed with trying to monetize my love for ponds and small habitats.
Just keep brushing off your shoulders. Don't want a chip on the shoulder!What can I say? Everyone has their vice. Some people buy chippers, some people buy golf clubs, some people buy jeeps, some people buy dogs, some people buy dump trucks![]()

Does the Wildlife guys still stock or re-stock ponds & lakes? Back in the early 60s, our home had an acre pond that was overstocked with mostly Brim. Wildlife came out & poisoned them. Then they came back a month or two later & released a load of bass & brim in the pond. It was all Free.From the fish truck that comes locally Largemouth bass are $2/ea...min qty 50

As long as he flicked the straps it should be fine.Saw this winner today in Aberdeen headed north on Hwy 1. He came through the intersection and peeled off to “check straps” while I was at the turn lane waiting for a left arrow. Solid strap job! Tow rig was a squatted Cummings 2500 with a peeling metallic gold wrap. Mirrors up and hat bill flat FTW! View attachment 402053View attachment 402054
You also have to say the magic words, “that ain’t going anywhere.”As long as he flicked the straps it should be fine.
I did both of these this weekend to the fella tying down kayaks. Surrounded by grown men and none cracked a smile. Spent the rest of the day fishing by myself, they had zero coolers and no tackle. I obviously wasn't among like folk.You also have to say the magic words, “that ain’t going anywhere.”
My dad wanted to go but we weren't able to get over there.Went and checked out a B-25c today at the South Carolina Historic Aviation Foundation. This plane ditched in Lake Greenwood on June 6, 1944. In August of 83 it was raised from the lake. Today was an open house and I believe the first time they’ve shown it to the public.
