That looked like quite a rain storm there, almost as bad as ours! Hopefully a good layer of clay smeared along the bottom of the dam will do the trick to plug the leak.
Yeah its still at risk of blowing out the whole dam again, more rain tonight! And its too wet and soft for me to get on the dam to try to plug it! Yeesh!
I'm pretty sure this one might have ran over the dam today! More rain, and it has been staying full to the top even with this leak, so it is only a matter of time til it blows over the top and washes out the dam again!! uggghhh. But Hey, I got machines! LOL. Thanks
yeah it's a shame its such a tiny leak. I checked it again today and the pond is still full to the brim so it will be awhile til it dries enough for me to patch it. But I'll get it done at some point and get this pond cleaned up as well. Looking forward to it.
Possibly, I've used it before with mixed results. I'm hoping I can patch it soon but the water level has not come down at all yet, its a small leak. Thanks
surprisingly not that much. There was enough seed that was germinate to hold off a lot of washouts. And with all the rock in the ground here it does not wash out nearly as easy as our last IL farm. So that's at least a little bonus with all the rock! :)
Deer was moving this evening ❤️💯🇺🇲
Nice lol deer have water now mine I just got a pond built with a dozer it's all the way filled crazy
Wow that's crazy! I guess its a good problem to have as long as it don't run over on you.
Great result on your efforts 💪 yeah it's got a leak but it could have blown the whole lot out 🤔👍
lol for sure! I'll be back after it before too long! Thanks

How do you do 4k videos. my filmora wont let me do more than 1080, when it works . it keeps messing my videos up and down to 480. getting pissed.
I thought we were going to lose our dam, it was close. Reports of 18" outside Salem
wow glad you did not lose it! Yeah scary when they fill TOO FAST!

Good luck with the dam leak, mo gas a ton of rock if you don’t backfill and roll clay it’s prone to leak

@ i’ve had mixed results with bntonite it may or may not work. Good luck.
Get some bentonite clay, it would be an easy fix for something that small.

Mrs K… Joe could have done a much better job if he has a Dozer!!!
lol probably in due time!
You have to use clay on the pond you put regular dirt on it.
I packed good clean clay in the washout. But I must not have had it sealed good enough, lol. I'll get back at it when it dries up some.
Too bad about your pond dam, I just hope you didn't have a lot of seed washout and gullies everywhere.
