We don't quite have a lake but it is a pretty big pond, about 500' across at it's widest. It used to be fenced off from the cattle and had a homemade diving board. Now it is muddy all the time, since we let the cattle have their way with it. It is also self stocked with catfish, bream and small mouth bass. All of them caught from the slower, deeper creek and transported to the pond. The other creek is shallow, swift water with a 20' waterfall. Only thing to catch out of it is small crawfish and minnows. Catch the minnows, then walk through the woods to the deeper creek and use them as bait.


One thing we have never allowed though is hunting on the land. Not because we are anti-hunting, just because hunters tear a place up. I also got shot, as a kid, by a hunter who was hunting on bordering land. Fortunately, he was bird hunting and I only got a few pellets in my left calve. He was drunk, of course and he crossed the fence onto our property. He lost his shotgun and all his gear that day, as he dropped it all and ran like hell. They never did catch him. The bordering land was owned by Georgia Kraft and they had no idea who he was either.
