I live a pretty sad and miserable life. Watching your videos makes me happy. You live the life I want and fear I may never have. Thanks for sharing, it means a lot.

Dude...your videos are my therapy! I am so relaxed watching them! I love seeing all the different wild life that shows up, love the pond build, and love everything about them! I get excited when i see one show up in my feed! Please keep up the great work and thank you for the free therapy! I always make sure to like ;)
Hey, you can easily overwinter tropical lillies. Basically If it gets colder, you get them out, cut of leafes and roots and put the rhizome in some moist moss or sand. Store them somewhere cool but not freezing and they should come back nice and healthy when you Put them Back in the pond in spring. You can find a lot of Info on that in the Internet, would be a shame if all those lillies where to die of
I agree, i live in texas and the lillies in our pond come back every year. obviously the climate is different but there has to be a way to get them to come back each year. I dont do anything to ours they are just wild ones that appeared on their own. also some really big elephant ear type plants too. They die off each winter but always come back the following spring.
There are thousands of dudes out here living vicariously through you. I feel like that's my pond too without doing all the work and spending all those moolah. Thanks man. :)
Those crawdads will migrate during rainy periods and get into the big pond. I don’t think they will hurt the clay liner, but just thought I’d let you know.
"If there's one thing I know about Bass is they love an easy meal". That is why the Bass aren't eating those eatable Blue Gill. The Bass are so used to those small shiners being thrown into the pond, that is the size they focus on. Can you throw larger bait fish into the pond to teach them to hunt bigger prey? Also the abundance of shiners makes the Bass target smaller prey.
I LOVE seeing the growth of your pond with all of the critters that have made t their home. My favorite is the "Wild Baby BamaBass" running loose at the airport!!! How adorable was that!!!! ❤
I knew the sand beach would be important. Most birds (ducks and the like excluded) NEED that sand bath to get all clean and with a sand beach there you have now made it prime territory for those apex predator birds to move in like you wanted! I hope you get an excited pair of bird out there!
Wish I had the budget for this sorta thing lol! I remember being a kid playing Minecraft and creating houses with tons of water features like little ponds and rivers going in and out and around my house😂
I've been thinking about building a small hydroelectric dam on my property once I buy a house. With your engineering background, I believe that would be a great project to undertake in the creek on the farm. I think your viewers would enjoy it, I know I will. It can power the farm!
So we went and bought some of the LMNT packs using the BAMA Bass promo. Oh my word is it tasty! We like the watermelon, orange, and grapefruit the best so far.
When I was a kid many moons ago, 😂, I would get excited for Sundays so I could watch The Wonderful World of Disney. Now, I look forward to Sundays to watch BamaBass episodes 😊
Great job the side pond! I love greg and his team. I am glad i tipped you a long while ago . About the trouts: they are bigveaters, i remember in germany/Austria europe we would eat that the forrellen hof .restaurants where you can puck out your uwn trout to eat. And as children we were allowed to extra feed them, and what they do is giving them omelettes! (eggs), and pellots. It was a lot if fun because they are alwats jumping, much more than base and koi's. We used to watch troats in the rivers in the mountain riverbeds in villages near the bridges, because they know they get fed as well.. so much fun .
I'd maybe check your scale or possibly pick up a new one. I understand they may be predictable losses after the spawn but those losses seemed relatively consistent. That scale has definitely seen a lot of fish over the years and may be getting worn out.
Not sure how I stumbled across this channel but I absolutely love it. Your genuine enthusiasm is heard in your voice and your laugh. May God bless all your efforts. Thanks for sharing your little piece of aquatic heaven with viewers!!
So surprising to me that you don't have way more subs than 1.04 mill. I know you recently made it to the 1 mill mark but you deserve multi million. Love these videos & look forward to them every week.
Can you do extended versions (without the cuts, so we see everything!) Also can you do some webcams on the Pond so we can keep an eye on it 24/7? I do fall asleep with your videos at night. Lovely!
@@BamaBass omg. the cats love your livestream! we used to watch your guys backyard streams on my laptop and they would jump on the bed with their faces glued to the screen !! even mistook it for an aquarium and everytime Cloud saw Shadow the catfish his eyes would get real big! 😂😂😂😂 Can't wait to see the ones @Cedar Falls! 🤠 and for all the new subscribers you're in ☺️for a treat! 🤗
I'm glad you built the smaller water feature I love the diversity of it I could put a couple chairs around it and I don't think I would ever be board there is so much to learn and watch even if you have seen it before it's still cool
I think doing another project like making trails would be exciting and new. I am addicted to this channel and you are living the dream life. Thank you for all your hard work.
Don’t want to be a know-it-all but at 30:45 you were talking about maybe making a salt water build. That shark you were considering is NOT a baby hammerhead shark. That is a bonnet head shark. They only get 18-24 inches large. You should totally build a salt water pond and get a bonnet head shark!
That would 😱be so wild! 😂😅 he'll probably load it with some stripers and red drums. Such excellent game fish and maybe the smaller specimens of grouper? Definitely wouldn't go Queensland unless you're wantin @thousand pound monster terrorizing your pond and eating everything in it but bumblebee groupers are pretty nice I've seen those they usually stay within reasonable size but might do a little more research just to be sure. and last but certainly not least adding some 🦈sharks! Most shark species from what I've gathered are nomadic meaning they require to be in open water but might look into some of the smaller species like oceanic black tips you usually see them in aquariums @restaurants throughout central Asia and major seaports like Hongkong and Bangkok 🇹🇭Thailand. 😎
Fantastic as always. Thanks for making my day. P.S. I may be wrong, but I think crawdads can walk from one body of water to another that is nearby. I had at least 1 walk from a very small creek on the back edge of my back yard about 60-70 feet to a very wet spot in my lawn and dig a hole to do whatever it is they do there. (I finally dried up the wet spot by shoving a handful of Willow limbs down the hole and over the years grew me another Willow tree.) So, I would not be surprised if you found crawdads in the 5-acre pond in the relative near future.
In my experience, it seems relatively common to see bass top out around that 2.5-3.5lb mark when they don’t have larger forage. You gotta find a way to entice them to start eating the blue gill. Talk with some people but sometimes you can clip fins on some to make them swim weird and look like an easier meal or stock a few hundred in a smaller size. Bass should pick up on the pattern and shape and start to target them more frequently once they gain some confidence in seeing them as food.
Absolutely beautiful pond building. Your crew knew what they were doing. I wish I could have just a little part of that in my backyard. Perhaps I’ll dream a little.
I loved the Bahamas traveling with all the water features. I’ve got an idea for you and Jr. Traveling to new and exciting water features and making a second channel full of water feature shorts! Find all the cool unique waterfalls around the areas you’ve visited as a collection for you to look back at. You do a really good job at filming water compared to how others film! ❤
i love the fact that with all the different predators and literal homes you have made for the animals, that a mouse and his baby have taken over a house and is sleeping in the bed like a king! so great.
I have a water lily in my little 625 gallon pond that regrows and blooms every year. It isn't fancy like the ones you currently have but it is nice not having to replace it every year.
hell yeah. I'm kinda hopin he brings back Tank Tuesdays but can't go wrong with a video every other Sunday! 🙂 But was thinkin on those off weeks he could put up a video of the 300 gallon and maybe squeeze in a few clips from the backyard pond. (Just a thought) Shout out to bama bass ✌🏽😉if you're in the comments! 😎
Such a gorgeous aquatic stone you see them @Bass Pro Shops everywhere and (of course) the legendary Cabela's. Such an amazing stone hard to believe they are exclusively in that part of the country but such an amazing sight when seeing them on display. They go so well 👍🏽with just about anything! 😎
Crazy it’s already been 100 days. Time sure flies. I can’t wait to see those plants grown in like the backyard pond! Still crossing my fingers we see a gar in Cedar Falls. Also, that was a lizard, not a salamander. Probably an anole.
Well THAT was a packed video with ERRYTHANG 😁I don’t know which I enjoyed most! I’m not a big fisher coz my dad got me hooked on deep sea fishing, and lakes were too tame for me lol. It’s the one thing I missed when my folks split. I know all you guys are drooling though lol. Whew-that hawk was a little lackadaisical in his intention so squirrel wasn’t lunch! Sorry I can’t remember all the names. Good to know you’re up on all the care for the fish, it’s a hot summer-maybe they’re eating light too lol. Your son AND daughter are so precious but lookout dad-he’s a runner! Lovely to see you share your Bahamas trip too great place! Thank you🙏🏻❤️🌟
I love the small ponds landscaping and hardscaping other than that red mulch. I always thought it stood out like an eye sore when I was a kid. All of our flower beds at my childhood home had it. Anyways, keep up the good work! Love the journey
How good is it to watch feel good videos, faith in humanity restored. no agenda, no politics, just an amazing dream being realised and shared. Legend work BamaBass
It is possible, but really difficult en to costly. The sun gets a lot of algae in the pond. U need it to be in the shade almost all of the time. I have seen some ponds. But most are close to the sea and they can pump fresh saltwater 24/7. It is possible, but it will be a next level challenge wich might not be worth all that trouble. A saltwaterpon works better/great inside tho.
@@standoortjes3651 , my thoughts to. The Crimson Oak pond is basically replicating what can happen naturally in that climate and space and we see how much maintenance that takes. A salt water pond on same property would really be trying fight nature. I've only done small aquariums but salt water is a big step up in difficulty from freshwater
I really enjoy watching all the things you have done with the pond. I had a thought when I saw you down at the creek. Get you a 1/16 oz. red rooster tail lure with a short rod and see if you can catch a Red Finn Pike. I beat very few of your viewers even know what they are. They don't get very big (12 to 15 inches) is a big pike. Many people who have eaten them will say they are the best-tasting freshwater fish there is, I'm one of them !
Would love to see you build a salt water pond, but that would be an insane level of maintenance. Would probably need to hire a full time person or two to take care of it.
Would love to see you fish for some with a 6” glidebait. Maybe a cormorant Thrizzard, a Trashy bass Thready, ya, it would be so cool to watch. Really enjoy these pond videos!!
I've been watching these videos for 4 years now. Found the channel on a road trip with my then girlfriend, now wife who is pregnant with our 2nd boy. Love the channel and can't wait to builds my little slice of heaven like this one day. The mouse hopping on the bed to sleep in the mouse house is hilarious.
Pleaseeeeeee do the saltwater pond! 😭🔥 I can already see it now. I love how out go all out on the projects & you never disappoint! I love to see how you’ve added your ponds to the ecosystem & watch the wildlife interact. I dream of having a backyard like that lol. I’m curious to see the different or similar interaction with a saltwater pond introduced to the environment. Could you please look into it 😂🫱🏽🫲🏻? P.S. I love the new trend you’ve started on TH-cam, now I have more pond builds to watch leading up to Sundays 😂🔥
What a life! So happy for you and your family getting to do what you guys love to do you've done some amazing amazing things with your property! love your content! Can't wait to follow along with your new projects!
I wonder if the bass weight problem has to do with their metabolism and the heat. With the Alabama heat their metabolism is going to be super quick, they might just be burning off energy as quickly as they consume it. It seemed like the 3+ pounders were getting caught in November, when it was cool enough for long enough that they could properly eat
In the new pond, your trout need shade. Maybe your bass in the 5 acre pond could use more of the same. Have you considered putting some trees in on the bank? Iust a thought.
This is where it will get super interesting. Seems like there are two different types of ponds, those with an abundance of 2.5 lbs and then the ones where the monsters live. Curious if it's just genetics or a combination of things.
The reason the bass might be going for the flys on the top of the water and wasting energy is because they have that light shining down on them from above. Just a thought though. Makes sense if you think about it; they'd focus on the things they can see above them. (As far as, when you were monitoring them on the night cam).
Also your bass are prolific spawners you should definitely be taking out some of the two and under pounders to help give the bigger bass less competition. Or maybe even adding a few predator fish that'll keep the small bass population down
Who waits for these videos every Sunday evening 🙋♂️
Meeeeee
👋🏻
i do!!!!!
I wait for it every other Sunday..

I live a pretty sad and miserable life. Watching your videos makes me happy. You live the life I want and fear I may never have. Thanks for sharing, it means a lot.

It’s been two weeks overdue!!! I was heartbroken not to have had a video last Sunday lol… keep up the good work BamaBass!

you want to ensure scales are calibrated mate, weigh something you know the weight of and make sure it's right
There's too many in the pond, a body of water will always reach a point of equilibrium
It's not Sunday if there's no BamaBass video!
🗣️
Those crawdads will migrate during rainy periods and get into the big pond. I don’t think they will hurt the clay liner, but just thought I’d let you know.
Came here to say this
Incredible job, keep it up. No politics, or controversial topics, just relaxing outdoor content and fascinating analysis. You're amazing.
"If there's one thing I know about Bass is they love an easy meal". That is why the Bass aren't eating those eatable Blue Gill. The Bass are so used to those small shiners being thrown into the pond, that is the size they focus on. Can you throw larger bait fish into the pond to teach them to hunt bigger prey?
Also the abundance of shiners makes the Bass target smaller prey.
Yup. And they are likely having to work a lot harder to chase down/catch 1-2 dozen shiners vs a large bluegill.

Nice red shouldered hawk going after the squirrel. Time to cull some bass or add some pickerel or other toothy predator fish to cull baby bass.
Missed not having a Sunday night video lately, but glad you got to take some time off and travel… Always look forward to the “Next Episode” 😊

In my experience, it seems relatively common to see bass top out around that 2.5-3.5lb mark when they don’t have larger forage. You gotta find a way to entice them to start eating the blue gill. Talk with some people but sometimes you can clip fins on some to make them swim weird and look like an easier meal or stock a few hundred in a smaller size. Bass should pick up on the pattern and shape and start to target them more frequently once they gain some confidence in seeing them as food.

The aquascape pond looks fantastic!!❤❤❤ I love all the variety of Lillies! 🪷🪷🪷🪷🪷
Time to build a house next to the ponds??? Love the videos man!
Always love all the animals and fish 🐟💞
You can find lilies that overwinter. They just brought you tropicals .
hell yeah stay in his ear about those! 👍🏽would love to see them in the Crimson Oak. 😎
Have you thought about adding freshwater acclimated tarpon? There are plenty in the Florida catch ponds and canals.
Very very great pond, one of the best, if not the best pond I’ve ever seen.
What a life! So happy for you and your family getting to do what you guys love to do you've done some amazing amazing things with your property! love your content! Can't wait to follow along with your new projects!
I wonder if the bass weight problem has to do with their metabolism and the heat. With the Alabama heat their metabolism is going to be super quick, they might just be burning off energy as quickly as they consume it. It seemed like the 3+ pounders were getting caught in November, when it was cool enough for long enough that they could properly eat
cool video and amazing update! but you should for sure make yourself a saltwater pond with sharks, that sounds rad as hell
In the new pond, your trout need shade. Maybe your bass in the 5 acre pond could use more of the same. Have you considered putting some trees in on the bank? Iust a thought.
I could watch these videos everyday. Thanks sharing this with us.
A salt water pond would be so cool to see along with your other two. Again amazing video as always.
Keep them coming, for I love them and I know that everyone do's the same.
This is where it will get super interesting. Seems like there are two different types of ponds, those with an abundance of 2.5 lbs and then the ones where the monsters live. Curious if it's just genetics or a combination of things.
Wow! Didn’t realize bass were so fast. You should definitely venture into saltwater ponds.
Our family also watches your videos. They are relaxing to watch and we get to see God's beautiful creation. God bless you.🙂
Sculpins for the waterfall area in Cedar Falls would be awesome
The reason the bass might be going for the flys on the top of the water and wasting energy is because they have that light shining down on them from above. Just a thought though. Makes sense if you think about it; they'd focus on the things they can see above them. (As far as, when you were monitoring them on the night cam).
LETS GOO I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR VIDEOS, SUPPORT FROM ASIA
Also your bass are prolific spawners you should definitely be taking out some of the two and under pounders to help give the bigger bass less competition. Or maybe even adding a few predator fish that'll keep the small bass population down
This is such a great video! The explanation at 3:15 really helped me understand the concept better. Thanks for sharing!
Get so excited everytime I see Bama bass pop up, love these videos
