Where can I get free plans for building a large pond to stock fish in?
Who would I contact to help me plan a pond for free, or is there a website that gives good examples that I could get basic ideas from?
Thank You Very Much .. for your time!
Answers:
First contact your local Dept of Natural Resources to make sure they will allow you to put a pond in.
If you are within a certain amount of distance from a natural waterway,they won't allow it. They also have many other stipulations,laws and rules.
After getting approval,then I would check if they have suggestions or plans for ponds. Many times they will help with these types of things if it is good for the environment.
Yes,you must fill the pond with clay,or it will not hold water. If you are lucky,you will hit natural springs. This will help with keeping your pond filled and you won't need to have aerators.
You can type 'pond layout' into your google searchbar and it will give you many options.
