Stock pond drying up...
Lack of rains sufficient enough to provide runoff in this part of the state are causing ponds to dry up. Largemouth Bass are dying because of the lack of oxygen in the water. The old cedar post are remnants of a fence we had years ago to keep livestock from venturing out and getting "bogged up" in the mud and dying. When time like this came we had windmills which provided water to thirsty livestock. I hope we get good rains soon so we won't see this happen to the larger and deeper ponds. Hopefully the rains will come this fall or next spring. We then will catch fish and transport them the these ponds that went dry.
