Hey everyone, a friend of mine has a very small pond on some property he bought. Looks nice, but it's at the end of a housing subdivision and is very small. At least it's secluded. We put some catfish in it last year from the Mississippi, but assuming they made it, we doubt there's much more in it. It's about 7 foot at the deepest. It has steep hills on both sides which i'm guessing doesn't have much vegitation. The water is very muddy because of that. It's only about 75 yards long by 20 yards wide. Probably will never amount to much in terms of fishing but he wouldn't mind stocking it with catfish and bluegills someday.
I wanted to find out who does water testing? It seems to me i saw a post somewhere that made it sound like a pretty simple processs.
It does have a leaky damn and a cattail infestation, so we are going to start draining it today if everything works out to fix the dam. Figured i would take a water sample today just to see how healthy the water is in it now.
I wanted to try and start a thread on this to ask a few more questions once we get going so i'll probably have something going with pics in the fishing forum later.
