Augie;
That is a nice looking pond!
Blueberries have shallow roots and they like to set about 2 feet above a water table! Something to consider!
Will you be putting trees along the south shore to provide shade for the perch? (Good place to sit an Fish!)
There’s room on the NW side of the pond to put some blueberries, but that spot is covered with a jungle of poison ivy. So far I’ve been content to leave it alone. Now I’m going to have to think about cleaning it up.
South side is the dam, so no trees allowed. There’s plenty of shade for the fish under the dock. It’s a 12’x16’ floater with 4’x16’ ramp. Pond is 16’ deep out in the middle. Even with diffused aeration running in the summer the deep water stays cool.
