A while back I met someone who told me he used to have bad allergies, then he switched to all organic food and they went away. He had to be pretty strict about it and he stopped eating at restaurants and prepared all his own food. In my own experience, as I eat more and more organic, my allergies get milder.

I'm planning on having rocks and tree branches in the pond for habitat and some aquatic floating plants, so this would probably make netting the whole pond difficult, but maybe the cove could be free of obstacles and a net could be used there. I'll probably have a friend that's familiar with fishing help me out the first time.

Thanks Michael. I hadn't heard about making a cove for that purpose. It's good that I'm asking before digging my pond. I was thinking of using a funnel type trap. I haven't gone fishing since I was very young, so this should be quite an adventure. What is the best way to kill the fish? Hitting them on the head? I was also thinking maybe a good way to harvest some of them would be to have people pay me to come fish at my pond.

I was wondering how you guys harvest your fish/other aquatic animals. Thanks.
