The deeper the pond, the cooler and cleaner - if a small pond is in question, I wouldn't hesitate to even cover one/portion of it to provide valuable shadow for fish up the surface. How are you mister ?

Relax... just wanna take a picture of you 😮

what would be a perfect addition, would be to drill till you hit water so it will fill with fresh cold water. trout are a cold water lover and it would solve the airation and algae issue too.:)

I believe Irv has passed :(

Any pond updates?

Thanks for letting us see the fish u got from the fish farm that why u get a portable air pump u want have that problem with fish dying there 10 bucks maybe cheaper

Murky is real good; it means the ph level is right on. That much vegetation brings that much bugs: mosquito larvae, worms, spiders, tadpoles(not bugs), dragonfly larvae, etc. Well fed trout will grow one inch a month and then slow down in winter months. Great job. Mr. Paton.

Just found this video. I live in NH and have a goal of building a trout pond for fly fishing classes. Do you still have this pond? I'd love to correspond with you to learn more about your experience. Also, very curious how you have such cold temps in such a small pond in NH in the warmer months.

I tried following other, newer tutorials for this one and failed about 20 times. Even though the UI has changed quite a bit in the last 7 years, this vid actually made me succeed 😄 Thank you very much Irv, You brought my new Business 1 step closer to be up & running 🙂

I am thinking watercress to shade the water and produce sellable product. I had a big koi pond in Florida and was able to keep high density fish with small pump through a trench lined with greenhouse covering and filled with gravel and irises etch top of gravel

Your pond max temperature in hot summer

Did you notice alot of "downed trees" torn out of the ground with the roots sticking out in the woods? Or close by ? If you do, the intruders are not of the animal kingdom. Let me know my friend and I will explain why. Thanks!

Trying to buy a new nesting pipe. Do you know where to buy some?

Lmfao

The TMS is a solid stove to start with, but you had to make several improvements to the damn thing. Some of the things I wound up doing to mine: put gasketing around the front door, replace the hinge for the front door, replaced the latch for the front door, welded the back clean out door shut, trimmed the legs and wrapped the bases with self-vulcanizing tape so the stove itself would fit in my bell tent, and I could use the hot water heater for tea and coffee. So the one thing I have noticed is that you have to adjust the front and the back air intakes at just about the same rate, this prevents smoke from backing up into your tent and the other last improvement I made was I got rid of the spark arrestor that was in the top section. I replaced it with a stainless steel gutter guard, that I pushed up into the chimney it's got a finer mesh and actually catches more sparks. And when it gets too clogged I knock it out and install a newer one. I'll take the old one sometimes throw it inside the firebox, and see if it can clean most of the creosote off. And if that doesn't work I toss it in the trash they come six to a package.

Nice man ty

thanks, downloaded, all works!

Thank you SO much for this video :) it really helped me out!

The ‘murky water looks like phytoplankton - that’s the sign of a healthy pond We’ll done

!

understanding how everytNice tutorialng works. TNice tutorials is like my 10th ti watcNice tutorialng tNice tutorials lol I’m so basic!

Our game department tells us that never have carp (gold fish) in with our trout. They keep the bottom stirred up and murky. Ours got large

The best!

Am so grateful for the 0.2btc I receive from this team ...for starting a business thanks for guidance sir

What about on a heart shape?

Why don't you get a small solar panel to power the air in the pond?

super explanation

This is georgeous!! It's huge so you could actually live off of Trout if needed

do you have a pond liner or do you get enough water constantly to keep it full?

I'm no fish expert but I do know trout do much better in cooler waters like spring fed streams I would think they could survive in a pond like this if it was much deeper I would think 5 feet deep still water would get way to warm. Their very sensitive sometimes just holding a trout with dry hands is enough to kill them making your hands wet seems to help alot. I've been to silver lake Madison new Hampshire one time and it gets warm in the summer months. I would think to warm to keep trout alive in such shallow standing water.

This tutorial is very clear and easy to understand. You just saved my day ! Thank you

Do an update

How deep is your pond?

ehh.. been waiting for an update for so long. hope you’re doing well and your trouts are growing big and strong

I like the Alpine Stove.

Great video!

definitely plant some trees around for more natural insects and for shade to keep it cool during the summer

This is the best 2 separate text lines wrap around a circle (one text on the top - other at the bottom of the circle) - Have been watching many difference other videos and never accomplished until I found this video. THANK YOU SO MUCH

I have both :-)

I’m thinking of getting an aerator also, won’t be doing trout but it did become obsolete after a while? Also what did you plant on your dam?

Great shirt!

Yes an update would be awesome🙏

Brilliant explanation thank you - made for numptys like me and now I have logo!

Very nice. God bless your fish/frog pond.

Did the goldfish eat the lil rainbow trout?

I have the sportsman guides version of the tms. I put my own grate in it . I used a cast iron grate from a grill. I'm thinking about buying the camp chief alpine stove . My use for it will be used in my 33 foot camper as back up heat for the coldest nights . To keep the furnace from running to much . I will also modifiy the wall and floor area with fire board and sheet rock paneling . Do you think the alpine stove is to big for this? I also use the the tms in tent camping .

5 feet deep? They all dead huh

I would still feed while doing my best to maintain water quality...... also I wonder if it would ever be possible to run water to the pond like creating a rain water capture system and then cycle the water through a stream ? I bet you could dig and build it much much cheaper than you would expect??

Why doing you get a 700 GPH pump and create a falls on the left hand side of the pond in the corner and you wouldn't need the aerator and it would cool the water

Talking too much and video toooo long
