The scale of 850 truck loads never seemed too to crazy until you said non stop dump trucks for 30 days straight! I would definitely enjoy more pond building information videos. I see there are a lot of Q names left for the bass so my suggestion is “Quillian” and an A name for a bluegill would be “Augustus”.

As a kid, I had a bass pond in my back yard. I also had a nice sized vegetable garden, which grew wonderful harvests. I would fish large blue gill out of the pond and chop the raw fish into 1' square pieces. When I put the plants in, I would place 1 raw fish square under each plant. They are a great natural source of nitrogen and the plants put out some excellent vegetables. We never ran out of Blue Gills and though I don't have a pond in my yard, I still use fish emulsion for my fertilizer.

Hey BamaBass ! Great project you have going on ! Because of your channel I decided to build a 1 acre pond on my 30 acre Farm ! Luckily I’m on a swamp and used a 2 inch Harbor Freight gas pump to fill my pond ! I had to buy 600 feet of discharge hose to connect the Swamp with my pond ! The water quality is phenomenal, I didn’t realize but after a couple of days filling, I saw tiny fish in my pond ! I couldn’t believe those small mosquito fish survived the journey through the pump ! I also discovered freshwater crayfish and believe it or not, freshwater shrimp ! I used a lot of gas to fill the pond and always considered it as a temporary solution to fill my pond ! You mentioned you had a well drilled with a 5 HP pump to fill and maintain the water level ! I lost about 3 feet of water because the fall was so dry ! I think I would like to go your rout to maintain the water level with an electric pump, because the gas pump is loud, and disturbs the wildlife ! I need some input about your well and pump ( how deep, cost, maintenance of pump, cost to run) Thank you and good luck !!

I've been watching since before you bought the farm and have really enjoyed watching the pond building process. Your progress has been amazing. I would love to hear more about the engineering and ecological considerations that went into designing the pond. I watched one other KZfaqr who built his own ponds, and it didn't seem like they were putting the same thought into it as you. Unfortunately, he had to abandon his ponds due to fish predation and loss of water. I am glad that your pond is going strong thanks to all of your careful planning. Thank you for the very unique and interesting content.

I - Indiago. Love these videos, watch them as inspiration! I’m an Australian. I saw this channel a few years back & LOVED the look of American Bass. Being that I couldn’t get an American bass here. I’ve had Murray Cod, Silver Perch & Callop that I’ve raised & released. But after finding your channel a few years ago. I settled for an Australian Bass which I have named “Mad Rooter” in my tank at home. I dare say he’s as aggressive as Moby. At only about 1 1-2 Inches. I saw him eat a worm about twice the size as he was. Popped it in, and he took one end. Slurping it like spaghetti. After 2 hours, had eaten the whole thing. Keen for more videos to come. Cheers from Mad Rooter & I!

I have watched this series from day 1. It has been one of the most informative, yet entertaining series I have come across on KZfaq. I would be very interested in what building a 5-acre project like this costs. I am guessing with all of the equipment, dozing and delivery of the clay liner loads, along with everything else, the pond alone, not including the cabin, has to be somewhere between the $1.5 million and $2 million dollar mark. I may be a bit high on the estimate, but I don't think I am that far off when you include the well to fill the pond, the projects to stop the erosion, the lights in the pond, pellet feeders, and cameras. I see you are planning another pond build, will the new pond project be larger, smaller or about the same size? Thanks in advance.

Hello BamaBass, I’ve been watching your videos since the start of the series. I am From São Paulo, Brazil and watching your videos really brings me that nature peace. Something I would not have in a giant city. I’ve been to Southern Alabama this year and fell in love with the culture and the people there. I would like to give a bass name for the Brazilian viewers. C: Corinthians (Brazil is the country of soccer and Corinthians is the biggest club here, with the name having its origins from “Corinthian” in the Bible). T: Tupi (Tupi is the name of the indigenous people who lived here before the Portuguese arrived and colonized Brazil. It’s a common pet name here, just like Apache or Navaho in the USA). D: Dom Pedro (the last name I will suggest is Dom Pedro, in memories of the last emperor of Brazil, and some say the greatest Brazilian to ever live. Fun fact in one of his travels to the USA, he was so beloved by the American people he received more than 5 thousand votes in the American election). Any of the names would be a cool and unique addition to the pond and will honor all Brazilians that follow the channel. Big hug from Brazil, and wish the best for you, your family and the pond. 🇧🇷🤝🇺🇸

Wow!! I’ve been watching your channel for 16 months!! It doesn’t seem that long. It’s been a great 16 months!! It’s become a just like any of my weekly shows. We’ve learned as much about you, Liz and Sarah that you choose to share with us, but I’d like to know more about you. You seem like a hardworking, cool person. Anyway, I really look forward to my Sunday night KZfaq surfing while I’m hot tubbing.

This series is great. It has been very relaxing to binge. Fish name suggestions: Angela, Aetherius, Icarus, Issac, Nancy, Newman, Peter, Ptolemy. For Y I suggest Yggdrasil but I get if that's a bit wordy. Roger, Zeus, and Newman. Those are all that I've got on the top of my head. Love your channel!

I have been watching for 2-3 years now and I think Ivan would be a good bass name for the tagged bass! BTW, the bass have grown so much faster than I thought! Also how much did this cost? You should make the next video on making a cool landscape for the pond.

My family recently started watching your videos and we’ve really enjoyed seeing how your pond has developed. You mentioned in the kayak video about possibly allowing people to hunt the deer you are feeding and thought that wasn’t cool. You may have mentioned whether or not you had decided in a later video but if not, we wanted to put a vote in for NOT ALLOWING it. Using feeding stations for hunting should be banned everywhere

Hey Bama, in a pond of that size I am curious. Due to the natural rate of attrition from predators, survival of the fittest, and fishing. How often can/should you introduce more fish to the pond? How about Atom Ant for "A"

Another great video in the series. My Koi pond is only 10ft x 14ft and 4ft deep. Wish I had the land to make a pond like yours and If I ever do I will be reviewing this whole series again. You should fill one of you "N" name slots with Noah or Nemo. Keep the great content coming like you have. Any video you make with anyy successes or advice for any part of the process and the behind the scenes is always welcome. I would be curious what the cost estimates for the engineering and building of the pond look like. You get much bigger than a 30 x 30 koi pond and I wouldn't know where to start without your video series. We have a high enough clay content where we live now I probably wouldn't need to have any clay hauled in. I had to pump out the koi pond I built to put the liner in it because it wouldn't drain on it's own except through evaporation.

how much water do you think soaks through the clay liner back into the well? If you don't let any water soak in during wetter years, your well will run dry and you won't be able to fill the pond during a drought. Swales with trees planted on top are known to recharge the groundwater. Building some swales by the sides of the pond while you have all your digging equipment available is a great idea!

I just recently discovered diy floating wetland islands and think they are pretty cool. Would they be beneficial to your fish pond? I know they help with nitrogen levels, provide shade and attract insects (free fish food, yay!) but I don't know what the fish would do to the roots that work their way down through the bedding and into the water itself.
