Manners? I asked a simple question and you gave me a answer as if your the Army Core of Engineers. Why in the world would I dig a trench into a neighbors pond. "They" means I and 3 owners, own 8000 acres. I have my own bowhunting only sanctuary and there is a pond that was dug to build the levee system that runs thru our property, that I can run the trench to. If you don't have a intellegent answer, don't answer.
