It sure is getting easier to see who has a spring fed pond while driving around now, mine is dry, but it is set higher in elevation than optimal. 2 larger ponds down the road are almost dry.

i work at a fish farm and we stock ponds and this year is horrible. sells are so down. several people said there ponds have dried up or there is no reason to put fish in them because they are going to dry up. we have 23 ponds there and they dry up so quick it seems like a pond will need fillin like every other week.

Was planning on restocking two ponds this year. Glad I didn't get it done. One is dry and the other only has a couple of months of water left.
