![]() Okay I edited all my pics with Picasa and hopefully everyone can see them now. Also, does anyone know of a good dredging/excavating company in SE Minnesota? I am looking for any input/opinions on my situation. I am afraid if I dredge that the only thing that will survive are the bullheads. The pond has some bluegills, crappie, LMB, SMB, walleye, and a couple unwanted bullheads. Would it be necessary to drain the pond in order to dredge it? The past couple years have been so dry that the water line has dropped below the weed line during the summer. I am hoping just to dredge the shoreline deep enough to limit the vegetation growth. Now, cattails and duckweed have moved in and I can no longer fish from shore. Thus, I installed an aeration system with two bottom diffusers and have used bacteria to clean up the pond. Originally, it was overgrown with sago pondweed, elodea, and filamentous algae. My parents no longer have the elk but the pond has become overrun with vegetation. ![]() It is located in my parent's elk pasture and receives the high nutrient runoff. It was originally excavated in 1989 and has a maximum depth of 9 feet. I have a 2/3 acre spring fed pond in SE Minnesota.
