Chris, I just grin every time you toss a stump or snap a tree in half and toss it like match stick, you have that timing down to perfection. Thanks for the vid.

I've rented a couple of mini's from Depot, so I know just enough to get someone killed. It always amazes me how gentle and graceful that Chris can be with something that big!

Chris is so smart he knows exactly what's wrong and knows how to fix it great guy.

Wow don't even look like a pond is in that mess. Happy for a new video!

That bush you keep pulling up is a Privet. It has black berries in the winter the birds love but it spreads EVERYwhere! Lol it used to be a common hedge plant. But it requires a lot of maintenance

Years ago I had training in NC and during a break, everyone from my company was standing out under a covered entrance watching it thunderstorm. The lecturer was amused when we explained we have 360 sun shinny days a year and to see this much rain coming down and the fresh ozone smell was simply marvelous.

That pond is lucky to have you, it’s very much in need of a make over. Have a good one 👍

👍Really nice project. Looks like that full depth breach was a blessing in disguise as it let at least some of the mud drain off and allow vegetation root systems to grow and give you supported access for clearing. Thanks for sharing.

Just love the aerial shots. Nice property. Mowed area looks like a dog leg on golf course. Keep up the good work Chris.

Nice job Chris , the pond owners have the right man on the job !! Hope you and Winston had a good thanksgiving !!

Man the finesse you have running that 250 is smooth, excellent work Chris, looks good, that pond is gonna turn out pretty nice, big improvement, thanks for sharing Chris 🌲💪🇺🇸

That what you call an unknown bush looks like Privet hedge. Chris - the Pond Master to the rescue of another old Carolina pond. That breach looks like a knife cut thru a bread loaf. Still looks like the apartment complex pond mud dredging from last year only with lots of growing plants and tall grass (Weeds).

The 250 makes quick work, when you're running it. It'll be a nice little pond when you're done. Sure a big enough breech in the damn. Easy to find!

Looks like you got yourself a good project,at least you get to play in the mud once you’ve found the pond,just keep doing what your.😎😎😎👍👍👍

Thats a absolutely beautiful piece of property...... and there lucky enough to have you there to make it even more spectacular.....

looked more like a dried up swamp than a pond. it will be nice to see it a fine pond again. cheers mate.

I am always amazed at the amount of work you can do in a day with that 250 ,,,

Always a treat to watch a professional .

Those are my most favorite videos of yours Chris is clearing and pond building whether you’re fixing a leak or digging one. Lol. But anyway brother another great video so you and John and yawls family stay safe and keep the videos coming brother

Gotta say...that "goopy" stuff filled the bucket, and piled up nicely, Chris. I knew you'd find a pond in there...somewhere! 😉

That giant hole of water was there to test your skills. You do amazing work. Thanks for sharing this insightful video. The drone footage offers a great overview of what was. Wishing you and your family a great week. Cheers

Chris if you got a local weldinhg shop you probably could have one fabricated just as inexpensive as buying a used one and you can make it as heavy as you want and be removable. The first welding shop I worked in we built tailgates for Moxy Trucks. There not to hard to build.

It’s always great to see someone who is a master of their craft. Keep up the great work!!

You're giving me plenty of ideas for the pond we want here on our land! Great video. Sir!

The Pond Doctor is on site, great work Chris.

The weather is dull, but not so cold with you. We have -27 ℃ = -17 ℉ and 1 foot of snow.

Have fun playing in the slop man. Looks like it's going to be a fun job. Look forward to watching it turn into something pretty from something that's a big pig pie.

I find it helps to also run the AC when I've got window fogging problems on cold damp days requiring the use of the heater in my car. Yes both at the same time!

Looks so much better with all the crap cleared out.

Just in a half a day or so, you've already got it back looking like a pond... Nothing like the smell of ol' stinky pond mud in the morning !! lolol... Got to have the escape plan , in case ya fall out of site, and it can happen real quick !! lolol..Got it looking good already Chris !! Now , if the springs don't fill up while your gone and make it a pain in the ass to get back to work in there....lolol... Great as always Man , Have a Great Evening !! and, On too the Next...

the 250 sure makes quick work on the clearing!!

This one is a bit out of the ordinary, looks like a rice pudding. Good luck and be well Chris.

I love the sound of the 250,it just never seems to struggle.Nothing's a problem to it.

Bad weather rolling in end of next week at least north of you. Can't wait to see if you core this dam. Looks like lousy dirt to work with especially the way the break eroded out. That mud looks like cow poo

Chris, you are da man!! I really enjoy watching you work magic. Stay safe my friend.

its always a nice time when you can clean a pond out without having to break out the mats

I'd sure like to see you dig a deeper pond. While you are already there would be the best time and it wouldn't take a lot more effort.

Nice spot for a D-7!!! Thanks for sharing Chris!!!

Wow you got that mud out of that pond quick! We're gonna have to start calling you Lets Speed Dig 18! LOL! 🤣 When you work in a confined space like you are here it always looks like a bomb went off the first day or so depending on how much time you're gonna have to be there to accomplish what you're doing. You know sometimes it looks like a bomb went off up until a day or two before the end of a big job you're doing in tight quarters. Good video. Always fun to see a super skilled operator at work. Stay well. -Wil 👍

Another pond, bring on Betty!!

It's always a what one person can do with their skills. Looks Great 🇺🇸

I can’t wait to see the final product when you get done . I’m sure it’s going to look 100% better

The workers go right at the spot where they are to start the job and know what to do I love those gentlemen they are Amazing

i am always amazed at how the escavator shows no sign of any resistance at all when moving through bushes like these

Awesome job as always my brother love watching the pond videos keep them coming. Looking forward to the next video.

Love the sound of the sloppy, gloppy mud!

I like watching you clear the land

They don't call him the pond doctor for nothing!😁

Goopy - what a great word! Good to see the rain. Another cosy video on wet and frosty days.

Chris ain't afraid of some mud! I have seen him in some mud!

If you were really unsure you would have had mats. Nice dramatic touch though. Thanks for your videos. We enjoy them!

Even with it,s raining Chris has a great machine with a well built cab so he can stay dry.

The ‘Pond master back in his home environment !!

Is there a pond in your area that you haven't worked on? Charlie doesn't have a tail gate? He seems to have everything else

compared to some of the brown gravy I've seen you trying to remove from other ponds this doesn't look to bad !

Loved the outside shot with the sound of the mud squishing :-)

Off to a good start bro, no wildlife yet but i'm guessing there will be some berried under what you have moved already. Safe travels up your way

Chris, those little evergreens you were asking about are called "Buckberry Bushes", used years ago for switches to keep a child in check, I have felt my fair share 😉. You are going to do another MASTER PIECE aren't you?. Great Start.

I was kinda hoping you would need the mats. I'm always impressed how the thumb makes moving them easy. I've always have had to use a hook welded to the back of bucket to grab a cable on the mats to move them. But you make everything look easy.👍

Doing some mighty fine work Chris Looking great Hope you and your family had a great Thanksgiving God bless

Great to watch you doing your thing. Thanks for posting. 🇬🇧👍

There is no pussyfooting around with the 250 and clearing trees, just reach in there, grab them and yank them out of the ground. Beast of a machine.

Opening soon Turtle Paradise all Turtles WELCOME

Hasn't been too long ago that the dam breached then. You've done some ponds that looked dry, but they were like quicksand.

You forgot to say timber on the second tree🤣😂, but at least these people knew the right person to call to get the job done and done right enjoy all your videos thanks for sharing everything Chris

Hey Chris, looking forward ot another pond project

from my viewpoint, it appears to be a very shallow pond; which makes me wonder why anyone would put the kind of money in it; without making it a lot deeper.

Looks cool when the camera is on the ground it lets us see the 250 working!

With so many years of experience, the machine has already become an "extension" of man, admirable, right?

Looks great Chris. I live the pond repair videos. Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving.

Going to be a nice blue pond

Since your cat is named Betty, your 250 should be called Barney, and the dozer is bam bam. 😂

Looks like a interesting little project. These always seem to be more difficult than originally planned. Can’t wait to see the end.

Looking good compared to how you started it was a mess now you can see were the Pond once was lol and will be again once its had some Letsdig magic it will look Awesome Great Vlog thanks

My guess after seeing the drone video, is that someone decided that they didn't want to deal with maintenance, so they just breached the dam and let it go wild. But then I suppose that's a common theme for the pond repair jobs you work on.

I'm surprised you started this project in the rain, i wouldve been tempted to let it stop before starting so that the organic can take up some of that moisture. This time of year nothing dries up. It stopped drying here mid october. We wait for everything to freeze now.

always happy to see your work, stay safe.

Good small dame pond to repaire .

man, is that a washout for a failed overflow? Looks like many years in the making. Great work, Sir. Cheers from Louisiana.

That breach almost looks intentional! It looks like someone dug a straight line with a saw to drain it!

Never thought I would see a heavy frost way down where you are .

Heah Chris, how come u didn't use the mud bucket (scraper) neater and smoother.🥰👍

You have to be in hog heaven with all of this clearing out the trees. Like always Dirt Perfect does good work!

Good progress.for a day and a half work Chris 👍🇬🇧

A cow would be proud of the "cow pies" you are scooping up 😆 🤣

Your machine is so clean even when working with that muck. 👍👍

This may have been a good day to go back to that 5 acres project with all the bamboo plants we're at

You know what would be a great day out for you and your buddies? A day driving army tanks. Wonder if there’s anywhere that does it near you………

Look at all that sloppy goop. Think you better work your magic on this one. Take care & cheers from 🐨🦘🥰

Chris another great video ,, you said you can't drive the dozer into the pond .. well hold my PEPSI I will drive it in to the pond for you ,, you might never get it out but I will get it in there for you ,, LOL

That looks like what we call blue mud ..good to hold water..

..another dig for 'The Pond Master'...lol....have a great week...

organized bomb no truer words have ever been spoken. nice work. looking a lot better. stay safe.

Drinking game. Take a drink every time someone says something about using Betty after Chris literally said it's not a job for a dozer.

👍Great Job with no doubts and never fear Magic Man is here.!!!!!! LOL and also I know what kind of bushes those were well I know what they are now TOAST LOL. TAKE CARE BROTHER!!

Thank you for your time.

Love the goopy sound effects!

Fun job. Can't wait to see how it turns out.

love a good pond video.
