great dream, I had one like that when I was a kid, it was 60 feet wide and a hundred yards long and 25 feet deep.
when I get to tennessee I am planning on building me a pond 25 feet deep and 100 feet in diamiter.
my dream pond will consist of hybrid blue gills. 14 inchers [cool]
one gill will be enough for a dinner for two.
a frend of mine built one out of a spring comming out of the side of the mountain
he built a two pond system both are about 25 feet deep and ten feet wide and 50 feet long.
in the first pond he puts trout fry in the second pond conected to the first pond by a 6 inch pvc pipe he put machein cloth on the up side to keep the trout from passing untill he opens it to let them go down to the next pond.
when he opens it the all go through in about a two days. so when they are large enough for dinner he opens the gate, lets them pass and then plants new fry in the first pond.
yes he dose have to feed them every day to keep them from eating each other, but it is no harder than feeding chickens.
