Pond & Lake Management

Ongoing, science-based management that keeps a waterbody healthy: water testing, aeration, aquatic vegetation and algae control, liming and fertilizing, and fish-population management, sequenced to your goals.

01How we approach it

Left alone, a pond drifts toward whatever the water chemistry and the weeds decide. Our part is the read and the plan: we test the water, survey the vegetation and the fish population, and set out what your waterbody needs and in what order. Water-quality testing, aeration, aquatic weed and algae control, liming and fertilizing to build the food chain, and fish-population management all get scoped against the numbers instead of guessed at.

Management is sequenced and seasonal, and running it season after season is the job of our sister company, Lochow Ranch Pond & Lake Management. We write the program and hand it to their crews, who keep it on schedule and re-test so the work follows the results. One plan, one family of brands behind it, and a stable, productive waterbody that holds the fishery and the look you want year over year.
