Good morning. 30°/ -1°C going up to 48°F/ 9°C.

Damn shame. Know what caused it?

It’s a winter kill. From what I understand the ice being on for so long plus snow cover blocking sunlight from reaching the plants below causes a low oxygen situation. Had I known I would have shoveled/plowed it off. I plan to add a bubbler from now on to keep some water open.

Privite pond? Shallow water? Was it a freeze out, low oxygen?

It is my pond. As a hobby I try to grow the largest bluegill possible. Yes low 02. Pond is 12+ feet deep.

BIG BUMMER!!!! wasn't chemical was it?

Nope

No COONS to help out

The coons will find them in my woodlot soon enough.

Good afternoon gang.

This cold thing, i got . a snotty nose with a cough that is really painful on the lungs is a pita. I didn’t do anything yesterday and very little today.

(Only been and got some oil & filter, as well as a fuel filter to service the Amarok), before it goes up as it probably will.

so I brought 20l for £132.00 which is a good saving when buying different sizes as I need 7lts each time. That’s me sorted for awhile..

Diesel has gone up by 15p a litre in the last week, it’s now £1.59 , and will probably go up a bit more

It’s going to rain tomorrow, according to the weather guessers.

I got mail today:


Now I'm waiting for my cheap Chinese temu foam to land, and for @Czed to be here and give me 1-2-3 step advice.

Next time you travel, make sure you have a foam filter in each nostril, then you will avoid most of the viruses floating around.
I don't know how effective it is, but Dallas said it worked wonders for him.

Good morning folks. It dropped below freezing last night, and the taps were still trickling, so it continues...

I'm taking the weekend off. From work and travel. I'm sure to find plenty around the house to do. Itching to get to the cabin to do a few things up there, but it looks like that wait will carry on as well.

As a Kid we had a lake/pond close to the mill thathad some humongous Blue gill
It silted in and froze out I guess. Joe Tomek owned it as he got older age got "JOES LAKE" as well.

Gutter vomit.

What a difference a day makes!

Was 65° at 5am. Now 35° with wind screaming and rain/sleet/snow. Power has been out since 10. Have a fire going and lunch warming.

Meatloaf smelling good

They are saying we will get 10-12" Sunday into Monday here.
Or, a typical Friday night for Dallas.

It is possible to add/run an aerator for those couple of weeks that the pond would freeze preventing the killoff. One of the inlaws has done this with their coi pond for over a decade. They are just using a 1/3hp water punp that is left on during our cold spells. It seems to even keep the plant life from totally dieing out as well.

Simple setup .

Are you speaking from experience?

 

[redline4]

Are you speaking from experience?

I have never actually witnessed a Dallas Friday night. I am just basing that off what I have been told.
So, its mostly speculation with a good probability of being somewhat accurate..

Don't get jelly on us. LOL

Yeah I’ve been looking into that. It hasn’t been an issue in the past so it’s not something I spent much time thinking about until now.

We are supposed to be just on the top edge of that system, I am hoping you keep it all down there.
