  • This dude is literally living the dream. Congrats buddy. You deserve it. Keep up the good work.
  • @DarthStardom
    Not only have you built an awesome pond for you and your family’s enjoyment, but you are actively helping nature around you. Amazing stuff
  • Since your pond is a man-made water feature, I would suggest building a bio-filter between the new bait pond/utility pond and the main pond. All you need to do is built the new pond on higher ground; with rocks to create an aerating cascade and a shallow section for trees, shrubs and grasses that live in or next water. The water cascade would oxygenate water while the wooded swap would filter nutrients to prevent algal blooms. Maybe make more wooded islands so ducks can shelter on at night. A bio-filter swap would encourage frogs, freshwater crayfish and other fish that could help your bass pond ecosystem. This would encourage a greater diversity of wildlife. The utility pond feed source needs to come from the opposite side of where the water came from.
  • Fishing with your daughter priceless! She called her first blue gill Gilly ! Bye fishy ! Man had tears of joy in my eyes ! Salute to you and your family! Great job
  • @osiferdan
    Snowball is a Forster's Tern and the bird @7:35 is a Eastern blue bird. Love the videos and Happy New Year.
  • @dirtydoglover
    Yayyyy! Im so excited to hear we're getting another pond build. You have by far the best chanel on YouTube. I'm sure we're all grateful to get to be a part of it.
  • Very cool about the Aquascape team coming to build a feature. I think it would be cool to see a large wetland filter fed from the big pond and a waterfall cascading down into a separate pool, and finally back into the main pond.
  • @ninawink8973
    I highly reccomend the sand beach- as it will help attract more small birds for sand bathing and its a nice pretty addition to a small pond
  • Your daughter came up with that amazing name for that bluegill so quick. Brilliant!
  • @Rowan-zi8ek
    Figuring out how to have planted areas would be very very neat, they are both so beautiful and allow you to better support wildlife since it's more like a natural environment. Plants growin up out of the water really help support amphibians and give waterbirds a place to nest. Keep consulting local biologists/ecologists about how to beat support the critters near you! They seem to have given pretty good advice so far.
  • @kevintmerk
    I would love to see a Live feed when Moby gets moved to the backyard. That would be awesome to see unedited and live of the day I look forward to most.
  • @moyetlicious
    I think it would be super interesting to get a local ecologist on board to assist with the new pond build, they could help you make a really valuable addition to the area for local flora and fauna. Think native species of plants and insects etc all beneficial to the larger pond and wider area at large!
  • @rktflt
    I’m amazed at how the pond has taken off, a lot quicker than I would have thought. I’d like to throw the name Augustine in for one of the fish in honor of my dad who I recently lost.
  • I always love watching those time lapse night shots! So peaceful
  • @bh-0330
    Having bald eagles on that property and using that pond as a food source is one of the coolest things you can have in your backyard, aside from the pond itself of course.
  • @KathyCoker53
    I love how clear the pond is now. Hope it doesn’t cause problems like the algae growth! Love you channel!
  • @NickPDX22
    I’m glad you talked about the burrowing of crawfish in last video. Had no idea! Might have just saved me some hassle for my build! Very thankful for this channel!
