I've got 5 channels that I really love and you all really take my mind off this messed up world . I search out wholesome people who remind me that there are still good people and all of these channels have a Christian overtone to them . Your whole family keeps me hopeful and God bless you . PK
Mr Dutch your idea of taking that pond and making long-terms sort of like in s-shape?? Reminds me of the last or current Pawn build over at Lunker's tv, have you ever heard of Rob's channel?? I believe he has a very good Mind's Eye of a conceptual thought and design on building new ponds and not just round or oval shape... Mr Dutch did I hear you say correctly that you were somewhere around 40 something acres?? 30 something acres?? I believe either the two should leave you hopefully impossibly the enough linear feet that you could continue that as pattern that you're thinking of I believe that's what you think of?? If you can possibly get close to 5 Akers? Not using up the whole 5 Acres but in a 5-acre square area. Maybe started out with a little bit smaller and wider as shaped kind of like where you're at.. then add a c shape or an L-shaped a little deeper getting 12 to 15 ft maybe a 35 ft that's widest... then bring it back into another s-shape or u-shaped attitude the middle area from where you are ending at now on the beginning of what you're building.. if I'm remember correctly as to what Rob said on his Lunker's TV post on his newest build Pond build.. somewhere between 3 and 5 Acres was a recommendation if you had the room to start a nice Bass pond.. or you could use it for anything else as well...... not just passing on you do catfish car crappie Brown bluegill just a wildlife water sanctuary and habitat for the animals.. and yes as you have indicated, if need be you've got your own water supply.. if you ask me that's a brain working correctly on multiple levels, LOL.. I am now subscribed to your channel I will be looking forward to all your post.. I'll be honest mostly just here for the pond build but I'll check it out maybe you can give me a stick around for some other good cold fun interesting and offbeat stuff lol..
Once you build the pond put some solar powered fountains in to help move the water and add air to it. You can get the ones with light's, that would look great at night 😊
Ya'll are going to enjoy that pond, especially after getting it stocked and the fish growing. My best friend had a pond ready to stock when there were torrential rains for several days. The neighbor's pond over flowed, crossed the road and down their driveway into the new pond. Easiest pond stocking ever!
Omgosh 😂😂😂😂this is just proof that even adults still love playing in the mud. We just have bigger toys to play with. From maine, where mud season is reality 😂😂😂😂 Love you all. ❤❤❤❤❤
Dutch it's going to take some time to get it like what you want. I loved seeing the deer. Gabbie & Gracie are having a good time cooling off. Blessings, Love & Hugs 🙏🙏🌹 Love 🌻 from Apex NC 💜
Love watching him digging out the pond. That's a lot of tadpoles. You'll have plenty of frogs if they all survive. That was so neat seeing the deer come check out the pond. GOD bless y'all.
A few observations and ideas. Get with a wildlife officer, and they can point you into the right direction as for what type of habitats you want/need to create for the type of fish you want to stock your pond with. I'd say you are very lucky to have the type of soil you have as far as it holding water. Could deal with less rock, but hey, you deal with and use what you have! when the pond gets more full, if it doesn't clear up, you can get an airiator(sp) and it'll really hel0 to clear the pond. The channel "life uncontained) put one in their pond. Runs on solar, pretty small system really, like one one 100W panel to run the pump, and one battery. Also, something that would be neat for the girls, and who ever is fishing, if you made a natural "dock" like a peninsula, oh maybe 4-5' wide, where you can walk out and have water on both sides of you. Sorry hard to paint a picture with just words LOL. Oh, and if those are bull frogs(the big ones) those are pretty tasty(just the legs) breaded and deep fried. And the way they multiply, it's a endless(almost) food supply. Congrats on getting your pond bigger, in the end, it's gonna be worth it, for you, your family and the wildlife!
🙋🏻♀️Love watching the pond dig. That guy sure knows what he’s doing. What about a screened in gazebo out there somewhere or a cute wooden bridge w/fishing dock (one day) love your channel💟
Dutch, I love watching your videos, I know you said you liked giving us different context to watch, with all the different projects. But it would really be nice to see some of the projects be completed.
I think the new pond is going to be great Thanks again for another awesome video I really enjoyed it and as always I'm really looking forward to seeing the next video of
Our larger spring fed pond has fish, it’s from fish eggs stuck in the feet of ducks, geese, and blue herons that fly around from pond to pond in our area. We have cat tails, which are edible by the way, growing in each of our three ponds. Building a dock would be nice, but an easier thing is to build a concrete boat ramp while the water is still low. Best time to lay concrete is in the cooler fall weather. Hope a paddle boat is on your Christmas list! How fun would that be! 😃
Hi Sean, pond build is pretty interesting, well the rain will help fill it up now that it’s bigger and deeper. It is looking good but man there is a lot of rock there. 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦
The pond is definitely good to be bigger😊! Looks good 👍🏻! I was wondering how it was going to be built with all the rocks. The time lapse explained a lot! Thanks for sharing, take care 🙏🏻🤗💕!
I remember when that little pond wasn't much bigger than just a mud puddle. Then the girls got to ice skate on it. It has grown quite a bit and now it's going to be even bigger. Awesome !
Nice. Maybe if you like Crawfish have a shallow place that spills into the Big pond, plant rice and put in crayfish from the creek. They'll multiply. And in a couples years. Crawfish pond. Lol. Works here in La.
Hello Sean, pond is looking good, i enjoyed the video it was cool watching it grow. Your continued build will be fun & excited for completion! Hope Godzilla has moved on! As he could be a problem if you know what I mean. Take care Sean & family . God Bless 🙏🥰🙂
I built a wildlife pond once, it wasn't massive, but within a fortnight, the water started to clear and frogs, newts, water boat men, pond skaters all introduced themselves. I only built it for anything that wanted to visit or move in. My father enjoyed it, sitting on the low wall i put along one side, smoking his pipe and just watching the dragonflies etc. That was in the UK in about 1980.
check with the forest service years ago they would stock your pond if it is big enough. They did my neighbors across the street 10 years ago. good luck.
HI DUTCH, YOUR POND LOOKS AWESOME, JUST A REMINDER SNAPPING TURTLES MULTIPLY QUICKLY, I FISH A POND THAT HAS BEEN OVER RUN WITH SNAPPERS AND NOW THERE ALOT LESS FISH. GOD BLESS 😊
I hope that pond is spring feed and is dug out deeper atleast in the middle and some tree tops brought in for fish cover. It’ll take a couple years before a good ecosystem is established and balanced out. My Grand dad built us grandkids a 3 acre pond about 50 plus years ago and it’s still thriving today. I was barely knee high when it was being built and can remember seeing a track hoe and a big loader down in this huge hole, it was nuts. Hope y’all enjoy it!
This video reminds me of Daniel's video of draining the pond. He had a lot of fallen trees in his pond . The fish were staying around the trees. Great video.
We have a lot of red clay here in Georgia. Nothing much grows in it except unwanted weeds. Love the new pond. Hope it fills up soon. We have had a drought here with very little rain.
Thank you for doing something other than just a straight Round Pond with a little bit of structure in the bottom.... and just because of your thought to do it different is going to get me to subscribe and tune in to see what you do and what becomes of this pond idea you have🤙 good job, good luck, keep up the hard work enjoy what you doing soldier...
The conservation dept usually has a program to help stock your pond with fish. Also if you have problems with it holding water putting a few pigs in it while it's still low idk what they do but it seals it and it'll hold water great
Oh tadpoles . that bass will eat them up. Turtles ain so bad muskrats are a big threat to ponds . they will bore trough a damn and mess it up.the guy on the dozer is doing a good job coreing for that dam and push that clay in like he is . if you got a lot of shale like rock hogs is a goid idea they will bore with their snouts better than most machinery can do. If you got them fenced in good let all the hogs in there you can stand. ..
make pretty stone fences with all those rocks you got. Nice pond and great plans for it. glad some tadpoles survived, much better than mosquitos. yay for turtles too, hope that little one survived the rapids
I don’t know Sean you’re not the first piece of property. I’ve seen put a pond in. Dang I got a Lotta rocks everybody I know putting ponds on their property and several of them. Just dealt with lots of rocks at Lumnar acres. in the northeast New England they’ve got lots of rocks on their property. He has a special rock pile for all his rocks because everything is being used around the property for walls and so on.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is awesome love the pond builds. Bama Bass and Kendall Gray are two other creators that have or currently building ponds. Try to collaborate with them I'm sure you all would make a fun video.
It’s hard to tell how big the pond is now from the video. Looks like it might be 1/8 an acres. It will be a good one once you get it all dug out. A crashed car that has been stripped makes a great fish attractor . Take care and God bless 👍🙏
![[Part 1] ทารกน้อยถูกทิ้ง👶 หญิงชราเก็บขวดขายเลี้ยงดูเขาจนโต #โลกการละคร](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/nPTDvFCExks/mqdefault.jpg)
I think it will be great when you get it finished can't wait to see it full. Keep Smiling. Stay Safe and May God Bless You All. ❤🙏
That’s awesome watching him they got the pond. I would’ve never ever have experiences in my life. Really nice to watch. Thank you for sharing.

Love you all. ❤❤❤❤❤
God bless you in Maine from Texas ❤😂
Good afternoon from Syracuse NY brother and everyone else thank you for sharing your adventures and your farm
Really cool Sean. You'll not only have fish but bullfrog too. Frog legs are good eating. It's really coming along. Good luck.
Love the pond so far. It will be amazing when completed. They looks like a great place to rock hound as well
The pond is gonna be amazing! Looks great! Prayin for rain for y'all. God bless.🙏🏼😊❤
Looking forward to seeing part 2of the pound . So far so good 😊.
Dutch it's going to take some time to get it like what you want.
I loved seeing the deer.

Awesome! Thank you!
Dutch you should do longer videos i love watching what's going on with the pond and homestead ❤
Make a nice wall round it with all that rock.
🙏🙏

Hi Dutch and Family. Great video. Pond is looking good. God bless and love yall ❤❤
Well, the pond is getting their. Love seeing the deer. Can't wait until phase 2 to see how big the pond will be. Good job.
Glad yas are doing well stay safe and your pond looks great 😊

There IS money in rocks! You just have to know what to look for! Some people make a living from them!
Cool video, thanks!
OK must be one of the rockist states ever. If I lived closer I sure take some off of hands 😉. I'm sure you'll enjoy your pond.
That pond will be beautiful. It's your dream coming true. ❤❤❤
My brother had a pond full of tadpoles, they were so excited! A couple of ducks happened by! Quack, quack! And oops they frogs were gone! Duck dinner.
Yes! Ducks can eat small tadpoles. Or plan to eat frog legs. And crawfish buffet.
@@ernestinephillipsawesome4295 ducks eat full sized bullfrogs if they can get them down
Dutch, I love watching your videos, I know you said you liked giving us different context to watch, with all the different projects. But it would really be nice to see some of the projects be completed.

Takes time
You guys are doing such an AWESOME job on the new pond❤❤. Thank you for sharing with all of us. LOVE FROM IOWA! 😊❤❤❤
What amazing skill!! Like an extension of his hands. An artist, his medium is earth
Dutch i just love your new place
I think the new pond is going to be great

Another great video. That pond is awsome, he did such a good job.
Been watching you for about 3 .4 months now I like what I see so I've subscribed keep up the great work 👍
Awesome! Thank you!
Goog luck on getting a lot of rain 🌧🌦💧💧
to fill this pond up.👍🤗
I have watched several pond builds and it will take several rain storms to saturate the clay and it starts to really hold the water. ❤❤❤
The pond is definitely good to be bigger😊! Looks good 👍🏻! I was wondering how it was going to be built with all the rocks. The time lapse explained a lot! Thanks for sharing, take care 🙏🏻🤗💕!
Love watching your videos and the pond dig. He does a good job.
Awesome start with the big pond 👍
I love tadpoles! They are undoubtedly the cutest little aquatic creatures. Not so cute after they become frogs and toads.
I remember when that little pond wasn't much bigger than just a mud puddle. Then the girls got to ice skate on it. It has grown quite a bit and now it's going to be even bigger. Awesome !

Leave some ground in between the two ponds so you can build a bowed bridge . ❤

You could build some awesome buildings with those rocks.
check with the forest service years ago they would stock your pond if it is big enough. They did my neighbors across the street 10 years ago. good luck.
HI DUTCH, YOUR POND LOOKS AWESOME, JUST A REMINDER SNAPPING TURTLES MULTIPLY QUICKLY, I FISH A POND THAT HAS BEEN OVER RUN WITH SNAPPERS AND NOW THERE ALOT LESS FISH. GOD BLESS 😊
Oh I love your beautiful pups!!!
LOL my 10-year-old niece said for the girls to bag up the tadpoles and sell them for 10 bucks a bag
Looking good most enjoyable thanks. Chris from England

Tadpoles that means its a healthy environment. If you have squitos ooooohhhwweeeee keep those poles! And thank them for their service!
I wonder were Godzilla went he was a huge turtle? Your survival pond is going to be amazing. God bless
Loved seeing the deer!
omg love it!
Thanks Sean for sharing the pond build with us all looking good and really taking shape. Have a great day take care and God bless 🙏💕
2 cents might think about a 25 to 30 deep area. Good for fish during summer my provide a thermal cline and place for silt to settle.
My grandfather dug a 15' deep and about an acre with a modified Timberjack. It was spring fed and was full in a few months.
Wow you had an infestation of water !! Move out here to New Mexico we very very rarely have that problem
Good video prayers for you and yours
Nice project Sean
Tadpoles are effective bait for bass. See the girls can sell them and make money to stock the pond for fishing
make pretty stone fences with all those rocks you got. Nice pond and great plans for it. glad some tadpoles survived, much better than mosquitos. yay for turtles too, hope that little one survived the rapids
The pond build looks good. I can’t wait to see it full of water.
Love it.
I think I’d seed some winter rye over it. NOT RYE GRASS. rye grain. Around the edge and on the damn.
The deer love it plus it will help hold the soil.
I do believe you have as many rocks as we do down here in Arizona😊
Good Ideas!!!
I like your idea of a survival pond, because times are getting bad
I don’t know Sean you’re not the first piece of property. I’ve seen put a pond in. Dang I got a Lotta rocks everybody I know putting ponds on their property and several of them.

Dutch, l just found that Decons bench you pitched for $2,000. Yikes. I knew it when l saw it too. I was saying out loud "NO" Oh well!!!!
By the looks of it , should've went into the rock farming bisnis. Starting to shape up nicely though.
Dutch can you channel the creek to the pond? Would keep the water clearer 😊
ALL GOOD
ALL THE BEST…
Just call your place Rock City.❤😂
Hi Sean, he did a nice job on phase 1. You will get more rain soon.
Get the tad poles and give them to the chickens! They will love them!
That’s not an infestation, that’s food for your fish, the cawldads, too!
Crawldads??????????
@@danielbaker4510
CRay fish. Prawns.
@@lindaterrell5535I thought crawldads was common knowledge.
Crawdads freshwater lobsters you'll never get the high societyits to eat one.
@@rc391995 better than lobster, by far just a lot of work to eat!
Bass and catfish love tadpoles
There got to be a spring on your property somewhere to feed that pond sure would help keeping it full ...
It’s hard to tell how big the pond is now from the video. Looks like it might be 1/8 an acres. It will be a good one once you get it all dug out. A crashed car that has been stripped makes a great fish attractor . Take care and God bless 👍🙏
Did you get your peacocks moved into their new pen?
Love the new pond. ❤
the turtle was a common redear slider not a snapper. the redear can survive out of the water for a few days while your pond is being redug.
