are critical when considering the creation of a new body
of water. Elements such as structure, depth, slope, and drainage should
be utilized to enhance a lake or pond.
Depending on the type of fisheries that is desired, our biologists can
assist with proper structure, design and placement for improved production
of a particular species, or they can design habitat suitable for all species.
Since turnovers are of major concern to pond owners, proper consideration
must be given to depth and aeration to minimize turnover effects. Also,
depth and proper bank slope design are important as preventative measures
for nuisance aquatic weeds.
It is imperative to eliminate old, stagnant water and replace it with
new oxygenated water. Therefore, suitable water replenishment and correct
drainage must be considered.
All of these aspects of pond design and construction are crucial, and
addressing them properly is of paramount importance if you want your water
body to be a successful, recreational venture.
