Building a Backyard Bass Pond!! (Day 2) 

Ive been waiting for this. Awesome buddy. Simply awesome.

Sorry to hear about the damage, that sucks

You should get a feeding rod for them lol

O Stay safe bamma

BamaBass. How much did that cost?!?! Ita beautifull.

😂😂😂😂

Exactly! That is to close to home for me. How could you possibly enjoy it in the summertime? Fishing it would be convenient. The other 90% of the time would be mosquitoes fishing for you. Smack and spray. The neighbors must be loving that thing.

mosquitoes probably wouldn't be around that much due to the constant flowing water and maybe the fish since they would eat them (maybe i'm not too sure about that so i could be wrong lol(i probably am)) xD

The water isn’t stagnant and there are fishes living there. So zero mosquito.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

I wish you caught a turtle instead of plants at 5:08

Love your work Greg maybe one day you cud build me one

What glue is used between rocks?

😂

One hell of a job man! that's the difference between professional jobs and pretend professionals

A bit 18th century with the gator lookout! hehe '>D

I’m out of but I still ain’t doing that crap!

Frogswim below the surface I'd have a gun & a shotgun I'd want them to have firearms out if there's Gators So they're safe!

Gator county is Florida not bama

Yes sir! I imagined by the title a dyi bass pond but this is a hell of a lot better

Finally you got a heart from a fellow medium sized RU-vidr.

Facts

$200,000 is my guess

If you like "Southern Accents" check out the outdoor you tube adventures of Hannah Barron, Trapping: Setting Racoon Traps Just every day life here in L.A. Lower Alabama Regional dialects are entertaining I guess, why down here us guys just melt when listening to a gal from the U.P. of Michigan, sounds like poetry to us.

That is a tough question because most of the guys in this video donated their labor for free. So the majority of my cost was in rocks and pond equipment. If you are interested in getting a backyard pond, contact one of the companies listed in the video description and they can give you an estimate based on what size pond you are looking at.

@@BamaBass thank you for replying now I understand a little bit better I know you don't have to tell us anything about the price or anything like that but I appreciate that you take your time to get me some more information beautiful Palm built I hope I get to see turtles in there maybe a collab with Kemp Kenan.

Oso I'm sorry for my bad grammar I am from Spain thank you...

Roughly 30k unless you get a cheaper rock.

I'd be interested in the additional electric costs with the pump and/or any lights (if you add those). I'm thinking of doing this in my backyard but more concerned with the electricity for a constant pump being used. Local power company gouging people lately lol

Nice! We travel the same routes.

How's your marriage so far

You're getting married? Damn, that sucks for you.😂😂😂😂

SAME!!! Exactly my plan!!! (just several years later)

I did not like that guys demeanor toward the wife, I'm a dude and I feel creeped out. bleeuughh

Hey Steve Brecht! Thanks for the shout out! I know you are a big fan of the The Pond Guy videos, now you have BamaBass videos too! Stephen and Liz are awesome and don't forget Bonnie and Clyde too. Wished you could have been on the build! Many more to come!!

I would tell people get off my lawn even if they were not in it

@@lizardman1303 wut

I’d love to have this & anyone gay wants to share a drink coke on over. I’m fixing to do a much smaller pond in my yard & it’s gonna be a fishing hole for my one dog that lives to fish. Hours at a time in our back over an acre pond (too far from the house & snaky) that we camp at. Can’t wait for the yard pond to have coffee at every morning. Budget would never afford this but any pond is better than no pond. 😊

That's actually the yankee from Chicago out there in the swamp.

sucks I know right

loving you guy rock

They are all certified Aquascape contractors and use the same step by step sequence on every pond build. I was very impressed watching them all work together.

I agree!

Man me and my dad go outside practically every day after work and just sit down drink a beer and watch the pond relax in the shade. It's really hard to get anything done around the house with a pond haha

Jason with Earth Works is incredible. He completely re-landscaped our backyard and his knowledge and experience with plants is unreal. I have some more footage with his crew that we will be showing in some upcoming videos. If you are in the Jacksonville, Fl area, he is your guy. www.earthworksjax.com

Thisis Sheldon we couldn’t have done it without Jason!

@@BamaBass bonnie and clyde are gonna happy!

Pretty sure you're a fkn pussy. Stay in your lane, liberal.

CamSayCam yea you showed him!

It is only illegal if you get caught.

Fuckin liberal just left a huge piece of Shit in our comment section!

raymond richmond fck u too

Yeah that would be nice

looks small doesn't it?? like the bottom part where the fish are gonna live

ChicagoTRS yes super laid back and easy going 😉

You have to be careful with crappie. They will out spawn the bass and can take over the pond.

Thanks bud

Impossible, when the Earth doesn't spin nor does it fly through space. #FE #flatearthmatters

Aaaaaaand you have no idea what's going on with weight.

@@JifeLacket Obviously i do understand. You are the one not understanding what's going on.

Lol I'm just joking dude @@travisk5589

@@JifeLacket Sorry man. I missed the humor. I am just really concerned that by moving all this material around the earth that we are creating a wobble in the rotation of the planet. And possibly cause the earth to spin out of control and go careening off in to outer space. Have you seen what an out of balance wheel can do to a car? That's just a few grams out of balance. Here we are talking 30 tons of material here.

Think he is ready for that? Bama that is lol I'm sure sheriff is ready

Will bonnie and clyde outgrow that pond?

Yes, absolutely deep enough. Volume of water is most important; bass need space.

Agreed... I wouldn’t wanna be paying a bunch of money just for someone to come show his butt off and try and kiss my wife

He was just having fun calm down

I'm the same way lol

Nah I prefer gardens and vegetables growing in my backyard

Jamal Otero you can still swim in a pond😏

Yeah, they have truly mastered their trade/profession, meanwhile, the only things I’m good at are playing fortnite and swiping right on Tinder. *:,)*

😂 😂

you don't understand what offends people and what doesn't do u haha

Pauline Eichner more like most ppl these days get offended by anything possible

How about ol boy tryin to give his wife a kiss. Not cool

@Donald Trump are you the real donald trump

I would like to know the cost as well.

0riginal Lee better!

Sup a hole your eveywhere

We are building Rob's in Feb.

Some people just have that kinda money to splash around no pun intended

I'm sure it'd last a little while. As long as they maintain it. They probably have the landscapers do it.

Corey Orr look at his latest videos! He loves his pets! this pond increased the property value as well. He didn’t pay for all of it the labor was free but the rocks/landscapeing and equipment weren’t. He also does very little maintenance and you can now even watch it live on his other RU-vid channel lol your wrong on many levels.

Semi what world are you living in?! You can’t build a pond of this quality and size with same size rocks for 500$ crazy man. Fool said go get rocks of a mountain 😭😂 that would blow through your 500$ budget alone

The guy he hired is in the pond collecting plants. Smh. You know he is over paid and he knows it. Do anything for a dollar. I honestly can’t believe he paid money for rocks and sticks. I can’t imagine the conversation with his advisor. “So tell me about your monthly expenses..” “well our pond cost...”

Yeah I was wondering the same?

I want one too lol

Im getting one this week

Greg said add chicken wire to the bottom of your fence and the turtles can roam around the back yard. I am still going to wait a little while so Bonnie doesn't try to eat him!

@@BamaBass right. Plus he needs to grow some so you dont end up hittin him when ya mow!

nasir bussey the pond cost more than the value of that house.

Comparing pond and house is like comparing your self and your new shoes. Your shoes is better than you😂

Mono is your standard line that has low visibility to the fish it casts ok and is super cheap it holds it shape from the spool so u get the loops in the middle of your reel sometimes good for bait fishing cause it has stretch but that could be a pro or con Braid which is what I use and is the best in my opinion casts the farthest (by alot) and doesn't hold the loop shape so you dont get loops only cons are high visibility so fish can see it and wind knots which are a huge pain in the ass but if u use a hook and stick it through the loops you can get even the worst wind knot out. Braid has low stretch so you can feel bites alot better you can also fit more on the spool because it's diameter is thin. It is pricey but you can find piscfun spools on Amazon for 20 bucks and you get 500 meters and it works great if u want the high end get power pro but it's more expensive Floro is not a good line in my opinion. It is very thick casts worse than mono and is ALOT of money it also holds it shape more than mono so it causes alot of loops which also affects casting it is mainly used as a leader material and its practicality invisible in water but not too much more than mono I personally recommend you use braided line with a mono leader but make sure you spool a layer of mono on your reel first because braid slips when tied directly to a spool but you can use a floro leader but it's more expensive. Braid = casting durable and zero stretch Mono stretch great for jigging or fishing with bait cheap Floro good for same as mono but not worth it cause difference is small and alot more money but great as a leader material if money isn't an issue I hope this helps I switched to braid 2 years ago and never went back. Also for tiring line to each other look up double uni knot and the fg knot

Ricky Bay Fluoro is better for leader and braid for regular line

Bama bass is more of an entertainment fishing channel than an informational fishing channel. I appreciate that about the channel. There are plenty of channels here on yt to search mono vs fluoro vs braid. But as rule of thumb mono is my topwater line when not slop fishing. If im using a frog on top its typically braid. Mono is visible in water and stretches. Also floats so keeps your bait up. The stretch is good with topwaters as it allow an extra second on hookset. Some like to fish crankbaits or even spinners with mono. You cannot feel the bottom good with mono. It is the most abrasion resistant. Fluoro is INvisible in clearwater up to about 10-14lbs and very low visibility up to 25lbs. It sinks, so not good with topwaters. Very low stretch and can feel bottom good. Good in clear or stained water using any nontopwater lure. Especially good for bottom bumping lures or finesse fishing, but i do flip and bottom bump with 20lb fluoro just as much as i do with braid. Braid is highly visible only good for stained to muddy water. It is neutral buoyancy so will float with topwater or sink well with weight. Zero stretch. Can feel bottom and get snatching hooksets. To me it handles much better. Very low memory and no line twist. Very high lb test vs line dia. Best all around line to use just not in clear water. The more clearer the water the lower you go in lb test. Only line to use fishing heavy cover, or pads, or slop. Braid most expensive, fluoro in the middle, mono the cheapest. All you need to know . . .

I agree with d vb, I love braid to leader. Braid to mono is amazing. Braid to fluoro is appropriate in some conditions

I use fluorocarbon line 90% of the time. It's almost invisible in the water and according to brand very little stretch. You get what you pay for, some is very limp and cast farther than mono or braid but you sacrifice abrasion resistance. Some is harder and is tough as hell but doesn't cast as far but you can never break it off. It's pretty much what your style of fishing is. If you fish open water with crankbaits, mono is best. If you fish thick wood cover fluorocarbon or braid. If it's mats or thick grass braid. If you fish deep rock braid with a fluorocarbon leader.
