The wife and I are looking at having a small pond built on our farm. We have had a pond builder mark it off and should be about one acre in size, with a 20/25 foot buffer around it. They would have to clear about 1.5 acres of woods, which drives the price up, but it really is the ideal location. Has anyone on here had a pond built, and what was your experience? Also, aside from stocking fish, how much maintenance is required? The guys we are talking to about building it have been doing it a long time, and we are confident with them. However, is there anything in particular that we should be asking?
