Adding 8,000 Fish to the 5 Acre Pond!

[@jeremywalker1769]

Run the fish tag sensor on the ground around where the eagles roost, see if any Eagles have eaten bass.

[@Parkscarzonr00f]

I'd upvote this twice if I could

[@bryanneo9585]

I 3rd that idea!

[@stewartwattson5386]

Fantastic idea

[@nathanielroot5434]

I had that same thought 😂

[@jromo93]

First dead bass with a name and tag, the person who named it gets a trip!

[@SuperDaveP270]

4:11 Brown Watersnake, Nerodia taxispilota 7:00 Pretty sure it is a very wet juvenile Red-Shouldered Hawk 16:02 Toads of the genus Bufo (which your American and Southern Toads are) release bufotoxin from those large warty glands behind the eyes. It can potentially be fatal if a bass were to eat a couple of them, but it is such a great deterrent (as you can see!) that they hardly ever eat even a single one! Interestingly, the tadpoles also are unpalatable to bass, but species like Bluegills and Crappie seem to preferentially seek out toad tadpoles over many species of frog tadpoles. 21:28 I have mentioned this to you in several videos, do not know if it is getting to you, but you can see that there is growth on those willow branches. Willows are notorious for growing from cuttings, and you have mentioned how you do not want rooted plants to break the clay barrier of your pond, so you might want to check those. Hopefully this is just new stuff you have added more recently.

[@tomkarau]

That is wonderful wildlife identification SuperDave.. Thank you, because I was interested in learning those kinds of things at the pond.

[@ibrahimswiss8714]

[@chadcanning2952]

First off, I absolutely love your channel, and have followed it since the very beginning! My Mom passed away a couple weeks ago, and my Pops moved in with me…He started my love of fishing and he also loves your channel now! So together we came up with some names! The male and two female Tilapia in Cedar Oaks should be called Jack Tripper, Janet Wood, and Chrissy Snow from Three’s Company…your new snake should be called Kenny Stabler…and if you haven’t named the bald eagles yet, dad suggested Brenda(mom) and Art, him, so somewhere he could always fly with her! Thanks for the your channel as he looks forward to every new episode! Tight lines sir! 🎣

[@collinmc90]

man this makes me miss my childhood home. we had 5 acres with a 1 acre pond we built on it when I was in middle school. So many good times. Nothin like having your own private swimming and fishing hole! by the time I moved out it had full on trees growing around it, made some awesome rope swing spots. Looking back I was truly blessed. Folks sold it last year, I'll miss it for sure. Hope the new family living there now loves it as much as I did.

[@salishawheeler76]

Yes, I grew up with a creek running through our property which was 10 acres. I miss it. I loved it.

[@buckhaa1502]

As an electronics guy I geek out when I watch this show. If I was retired and had time to dedicate to a project like this of my own it would never be a job. It's a passion and a hobby All 3 ponds are excellent. I love the progress. This farm will never be dated because everything's real time monitoring so you know when to address the issue before it's a major problem. It's just so cool to me. Your electronics/electrician is very talented. I couldn't build that. I could explain what I want but my wiring skills with relay logic aren't so good anymore. Incredible build.

oh i am SO happy to see redwing blackbirds making a home on the 5 acre pond! i grew up around them in our small town, since the drainage ditches all grew thick with cattails and redwings LOVE cattails for nesting. don't be surprised if you see these little buggers running off the bigger birds, redwings are serious about keeping the nest safe and they'll outright ride the back of eagles to pester them off a nest

They are intelligent affectionate , gentle creatures . My Flora gives me kisses every time i pet her. If you don't want them in your squirrel house just put citrus or mint in there as they don't like the smell . Believe me they have enough predators around already and they are just trying to survive .

To me it looks like a cottonmouth. I really couldn't get that good of a look it does kind of look like a water moccasin! Are they poisonous! Yes, cottonmouth bites can be deadly to humans, but they are rare and severe injuries are extremely rare. In the US, fewer than one in 37,500 people are bitten by venomous snakes each year, and only one in 50 million people will die from snakebite. In the past 40 years, only three people have died from cottonmouth bites in the US. they eat fish frogs toads birds. Everything you have their it's a perfect feeding ground I mean at the end of the day you're going to get them but to be honest I know you have children I believe you had a young upcoming family there Perry to me I find you very fascinating in a pretty cool character at that I would personally and I hate to say it identify it and make sure it is what I think it is and if it isn't poisonous but don't take the chance especially with your children

[@Chase360D]

To me it looks like a cottonmouth I cannot really tell the colors because I'm so blind but it's not a laughing matter especially if you have the kids around them don't take the chance it's a water moccasin that's what I believe it is they are poisonous and they can kill a human especially a child if bitten and they are a very temperamental snake and they love to best in the Sun so they could be all around but it's good because you keep the areas mowed around the pond that will deter snakes but at the same time it's not a boundary neither it's a part of nature dislike it is a part of nature for a father to want to protect your child
