How can I create a manmade lake?
I have a backhoe and a stream and want to create a lake to swim in. I'm looking for info on what to do and what not to do in order to end up with a nice, clean, sustainable 1-10 acre lake. I need to know where to dig, how deep, if I need to line the basin, stuff like that. Leads to a known good book(s) would be fine |

The first thing you need to do is check with the county extension agent
or the state department of natural resources. If you break some law on damming up streams creation the pond will be the least of your worries. C.
