The fabricator had to create a "slip" for mud digging
This is Hubby with an ICD (pacemaker/defibrillator) and he's not supposed to weld! He basically showed me the on/off switch and said, Don't watch but if I fall down, jerking, hit the kill switch!
The dam was broken and the pond drained to a lower level. I have shown some bank trimming and other things we have done.
Lis floated around pulling our limbs and cat tail stalks.
Time to try the slip
Didn't work as well as we wanted so back to the drawing board.
Dam was rebuilt.
Hubby lives to scare me...see the tractor tires off the ground?
So the pond filled with clearer banks, fewer reeds and limbs. We begin to restock the fish our wonderful Blue Heron loves to eat. We'll try again next summer. By then Hubby will have a new piece designed to remove the mud.
