Since you have Alcatraz island you should totally name the owl “Owl Capone”
LOL, Yes!!
Perfect name !
That gets my vote. Owl Capone.
Brilliant! 👍
That’s actually pretty good lol
THE MOST EPIC SERIES ON CZcams IS FINALLY BACK!!!!
Heh, surprised to see u here?
Make more fly fishing videos please!
Back every Sunday. It is my favorite part of CZcams and one of the only good things about Sunday night
name the owl snipe, or shadow, because they use the shadow of the night to conceal themselves
Yes
Can’t wait to see the pond fully filled
The Hoo
i just remebered and realised youtube didnt recommend the new ones, 2 new episodes make me so happy when i see the stocking videos ill be stuck with a smile watching
me too
For the extra logs maybe build 1 or 2 small rafts 3'x3' and then anchor them to the bottom. It will give birds a place to land on the pond and give fish and other aqua life a place for shade and to hide.
The moonrise, sunrise time lapse was pretty epic
You should refer to the Owl as The Warden. He's one of the primary reasons those ducks get locked up at night, not to mention he seems favorable to where Bonnie and Clyde will be staying.
The Warden, hands down best name I thought of this too as a connection to the outlaw, Alcatraz theme.
I commented the same thing except said someone else came up with the name (you) so if it gets chosen ur why👍
Yes!!
I was thinking Oscar, but the Warden is a good one!
Best name
I had to subscribe. Your southern drawl is so relaxing and the progress you make on your projects is satisfying. You praising your wife and speaking fondly of your daughter is lovely. I wish you all the love and success with your family and projects.
Your pond looks amazing. My vote is for Owl Capone 🦉. Love the series. Thanks, Bill
Put the remaining pilings on Alcatraz island. Along the bank. So the birds have a perch area. Staggering them at different heights
Great idea! The island def needs some more stuff
Yes that’s smart
I haven’t anticipated an episode like this since Game of Thrones
I feel that 😂😂😂
😂😂
This will have such a better ending. This can't disappoint.
Was good. Is the end of that sentence
Just imagine if he just decided to rush the finale and just throw a few buckets of muddy water in there along with a few Goldfish in plastic bags from a travelling Circus ring-toss prize because he wanted to move onto a multimillion dollar pond project (Then lost the gig because he ballsed up the end of this one)!
You make a 14 minute video feel like a 30 minute episode because I'm so invested in hearing every little thing you have to say 😂 keep up the great work!
Have you thought about planting vegetation in the pond for water clarity/filtration? There’s some plants that help with producing oxygen, stopping algae blooms and even toxins in the water. I know one big problem happened when Kelly Slater the surfer built a similar but larger pond for his wave machine and had bacteria problems.
Adding reeds like bullrush is used for filtration a lot over here in the uk and barley straw that releases a natural peroxide ( it releases slowly over months and doesnt harm the fish) and helps keep algae down...I should imagine you would need a fair number of bales for a pond that big and beautiful though..
I was thinking that too. I would assume that in a pond this large, aquatic plants will naturally find their way into the system and populate
Big respect to you guys for not only putting your focus on the pond but to all the other animals in the area. Helping them out with food water and a healthier environment that they can thrive in, it will do wonders for the ecosystem.
The amount of predators that attack Bambam and ali gives true meaning to "sitting ducks"
So long as they don't end up as "dead ducks".
this is not only amazing for the beauty of the place but its absolutely incredible how good for the wildlife and the environment this place will be when its finished!! You can already tell by all the different wild animals visited it
You are so very fortunate to have the space and resources to do this. please do not lose focus as to why you are doing this. This is an ecology project not a business project.
Best series on CZcams! Every Sunday night, got earbuds in, phone charged, putting one of 2 kids to sleep and enjoying the hell out of this. Growing up we had a 2 acre pond full of bass, blues, big cats, few large crappie and a pet goose. Skated on during the winter, fishing bets with brothers and dad after a summer dinner and took out several muskrats each year with a 12 ga because they would destroy the banks. Prior to moving to the south, I put a red devil cichlid from our tank in the pond, I laughed when I revisited friends in the area and the family that now lives there said they caught a big orange fish…can’t believe it survived 2 years after throwing him in there. Thanks for sharing this great experience as I’m sure your entire family will enjoy it for years to come!
Ahh did they put it back?
I'd of stuck him in a tank
That remebers me of when i found a hidden pond in abandoned property i use to always to see a huge orange fish and i would always wonder what it was im from GA so it aint regular to see something like it .. some old man would always come out there and ask me if i ever caught it.. but til this day i dont know what it was
Sounds like my Sunday nights… only I’ve got 3 kids!!
This place is going to be Heavenly, especially if you like nature. Your family is going to love this so much and we all love seeing the videos. God Bless.
Woodsy the owl for sure. He is actually the most important owl in America. Icon of the US forest service.
I won’t lie....... this pond build is 👌👌👌👌👌👌
"THE WARDON" for the Owl. Great series, keep them coming!!!
Al the Owl?
@@pinkzepqu12 my thoughts exactly lol Al the Owl but I love the warden

@@kellyharlow3609 Every knee will bow every tongue will confess...
You should set the remaining pilings completely vertical in the shallows so they slightly stick out like tree stumps. Top water heaven!
LOL Bam Bam said not today Sir.... There is just so much to unpack in your videos got some of everything in it. Thanks for letting us be there with you. Keep em coming👍👍
I know this is for fishing and nature and all that, but man... looking at a custom pond and all I can think of is how much fun that would be for an old stand up jetski.
This land is slowly becoming a sportsman paradise, love the series and can’t wait for the pond to be stocked!
Let's hope it will only be native fish in there and not some Arapaimas, Redtail Catfish, Cheow Phraya, Arowana, Tambaqui etc..
Or else it will become the US version of the Monsters lake in Thailand XD
I love the diversity of wildlife you have around you. I don’t think those ducks will ever be safe to leave the house though lol
Yeah, they would probably have a better chance at the squid game than being on their own out there at nights :P

I was thinking of naming the Owl “Hootie “ but I admit that name by Sara Kochan “Owl Capone” is a definite winner 😊
If he DID go with Hootie, then he'd have to put blowfish in the pond. :D
Finally.....the waiting kills Me... great Job inspired from south africa 🇿🇦
This is by far the best pond build I've ever seen. Can't wait to see it filled and full of bass
He's gonna upload another 34 episodes before its filled smfh
October 21st the perseids meteor shower Peaks and your time laps was amazing
Thank you as always,for sharing.Greetings from a sunny South africa 🇿🇦 😎
I wanna thank you for content that I didn’t know I needed until I stumbled onto it.
This pond is gonna be legendary!!
I missed you guys last week! I'm glad to see this video today. I think you guys are one of the best reality shows on CZcams.
The night Timelapse was spot on! And your comment about wishing on the shooting stars gave me Bob Ross vibes (in a good way) 😁
I hope to see crappie bass blue gill pickerel and a bunch of shad and minnows swimming around that pond one day!
Named the Owl Francis after the officer who led the hunt for Bonnie and Clyde. Because of how he hangs around the Bonny’s Byou and looks like he’s looking for Bonnie and Clyde.
Bro that’s perfect hope he picks it
@@scottyboi8563 I like this even more than mine :)
That is perfect!!
my vote on francis too for officer owl!
@@scottyboi8563 thanks me took
My family has an area on our property that’s a roughly 5 acre natural depression in the middle of a field. I’ve built a garden pond, but you’ve inspired me to go more ambitious and turn it into something like this
Dude, before you do this, just realize that this project was like a million dollars. This is not a cheap undertaking.
@@jeremyud If he has clay ground under most of it that would massively reduce cost... otherwise good luck to him.
Film it!
@@jeremyud I know man, I’m not dumb. My family’s been talking about doing this for years. We’ve built multiple garden ponds and water features and a swimming pool, as well as two 300 gallon aquariums. Im very aware of the resources something like this entails. In fact I know pretty much exactly what the labor and materials would cost
It’s been oddly relaxing watching you build this from da beginning
Ohh yeah the night shots are breath taking miss living on the farm falling asleep to that.
You should cover those green lights with some sort of plastic box so you do not hook the bulb covers with any lures. Love the videos. Great work
I'm so ready to see this pond filled, flourishing and an ecosystem unto itself!
The worst thing about this series is that I'm all caught up and dont have anymore to watch! Great series. Thanks for sharing!
I think the owls name should be one of the 4 wardens that ran the alcatraz island Olin G. Blackwell, Paul J. Madigan, Edwin B. Swope (my personal favorite because of swoop and swope) or James A. Johnston
Keep em coming! Can't wait to see it full. I've never been so excited about a pond!
The night shots were lovely. .Living in the city as I do , I don’t really see the stars . The pond is coming along beautifully and soon will be as active as your night time fields .
I'm liking Hoot-dini as owls are magical creatures.
Foxes and weasels 100% Cant believe how much I enjoy your videos. Thank you from socal!
I love this 5 acre pond series. It’s going to be beautiful! Your fish are going to be the happiest fish in the world. I think a good name for the owl would be Hootie.
I don't know why I can't stop watching this series. I've been watching this pond build intently and I can't get enough, thanks for bringing this amazing content to us mere mortals 🥺❤️❤️❤️
This is going to be a great ecosystem for all life
Lord loves a clever man. Good works
Ayyyyye lets goo, didn’t think he would actually use the teepee idea I had🤘🏾🤌🏾
It's crazy how much wildlife thrives in that area. And you can even tell there's no stress. Their posture seems relaxed always. That's really cool
Thats just how wildlife looks lmao
I dunno. Those ducks looked pretty stressed about the hawk.
@@sneersh9107 negative. I grew up hunting and fishing in the south. I know that area as well. That's a lot of diversity in one spot and on top of that they're all comfortable. That's not common at all. And yeah of course the ducks were stressed when being harrased but aside from the obvious confrontation they pretty much all live harmoniously. People in the comment section can't help themselves but to argue lol
@@ToolforOffice the wildlife is so concentrated there because he feeds them and because its a farm where he grows stuff they can eat. It brings in the prey species so naturally predators follow. And every animal I've ever seen looks just like these, calm unless something scares them. Animals don't walk around like they're nervous or something lmao, they're very comfortable in their natural habitat unless there's a threat nearby
The lights moving in the sky during the time lapse are just stars
I love how in tune you are with nature. You are very concerned with the surrounding animals.
You should definitely build a gazebo or other permanent structure out on the island, somwhere where you can get out of the sun when its beaming down but still able to throw some casts
Repent to Jesus Christ !!

Can't wait for the next episode get anxious to see it full and what vegetation you plant around the pond for cover and shade for the fish
I dumped some piles of broken brick here and there in my pond and the Bluegill love em. Juat a thought. Great videos! Thanks
I'm from England an I'm hooked to this channel now you guys get all the fun, best wishes
Feels like I’ve been waiting for a year for another episode
This has been such an awesome series. Always look forward for this to come back on. Can't wait to see the finished episode
This is one of the coolest projects I have ever seen
I freaking love watching this.
My five year old son and I have watched your pond build from day one. He’s been anticipating seeing the updates every Sunday. He also loves watching a kids show called “Pj Mask” and one of the characters name is “Owlet” so every time we watch your videos with the owls he gets excited and say “dad look, there’s owlette” lol so that’s what you should name it.
I’m a State of Alabama licensed Falconer, I’ve had hawks follow me around while bush hogging, numerous times. If you ever get the chance to go on a squirrel hunt with a falconer, don’t pass up the opportunity, it’s an amazing experience!
You should plant a weeping willow on the island so when your kids grow up they can swing out from the island into the pond
You could use the waterline pipe that you are using to fill the pond with as a part of a circulation system to help keep the pond aerated. Hook up an intake from the shallow end and have a shutoff valve coming from the well to the joint at the circulation pump so you can still use the well to fill if needed and also have a circulation system without adding much to the system already in place.
Love what you’re doing out there and not too proud to say I’m a little jelly. What a great place to build a house and retire. Happy for you!
I feel like the ducks are gonna get eaten the moment you let them out honestly, they must be so stressed out too I have to imagine
Glad there’s updates. I was worried the series was over
I love your project so much - just started watching it from the start.
Love the series.Can't wait for full pond.
Been waiting for hella long all these episodes are pointless ... He gonna upload another 54 episodes before He even puts fish in it
Id hate to say it but I don't think the ducks are gonna do well once there able to roam free. Alot of predators. Hope I'm wrong
Especially after seeing the hawk attack in broad daylight with him standing not too far away and I'm sure there is human scent all over that duck house as well.
@@edwindeas absolutely right. Especially being domestic ducks since birth. But wild ducks do survive. So hopefully they can adjust and make it
,,,,,hello..!...........watching in land o' lakes,wi....we're all into this here,,wow,,talk about a real project,,,dream on...this is why we like youtube,,,,,,,,,,,New fans here,keep it going to see progress....pat& family.
Epic series throughout! Glad all is coming together.
Would've been cool to put a giant meter sticking out there to show how deep the water is. Give a nice idea of water depth during droughts and raining seasons.
Good idea. Can probably make markings on a Dock post
The owl should be named “Big Al” cuz that’s how this yankee hears you saying “Big Owl” 🤣.
That's exactly what I was going to say. Big Al the owl.
@@-B-B haha I thought he already name it Big Al until it dawned on me he was saying “the big owl” lol
You have a great way of explaining everything in a way that is very relaxing and interesting. Thank you!
Loving this. Please keep them coming. I can't wait to see the finish.
I’m not even a big fishing guy but this project has me hooked!… see what I did there?… can’t wait to see it full! Cheers 🍻
I think you were just angling for upvotes ;)
Seriously can’t wait for you and the family to be out there fishing looking forward to all the fun videos!
Astrophysicist here: 1) this is a great series! 2) Those "shooting stars" are indeed most likely satellites and planes. Everything moving in the direction of the rotation of the Earth is going to be satellites and things moving opposite to that are planes. Best of luck with this endeavor! :D
This is a great example of faith yall seen it before it existed now its seen
Been loving this series, often catch myself looking to see if you posted an early vid!🤣
You should board up a corner of that duck coop so predators can’t chase them in circles
@@getonthecrossanddontlookba5004 Don't just give people a passage that's a lazy way to inform people. explain to them what repenting is explain to them how they can better there lives, and this person was just giving helpful advice.
@@thecaramelbrothers2601 Its probably a bot
@@KnaveRain True so many these days.
Great stuff. Looking forward to seeing the pond full and the water clear.
Have you put any thought into planting a tree out on the island?
Weeping willow trees love the water. Just an idea. Love seeing everything. So excited to see it full up.
Been loving this series, glad I found it. Thanks for taking the time to document this process. I'll never look at ponds the same again!
You sir, are an inspiration. Talk about living the dream
Great series! This is great information since our non-profit is in the works of building a lake retreat for veterans and their families. I have literally binge watched the entire series all day and can't wait to see the finished project.... especially the cost.
So sad its almost done. I just don't know how you could top that. I was like a kid waiting for new episodes. Thank you so very much for the experience. From central Alberta Canada. Where we already have ice.
Also from southern Alberta
Can’t wait to see the pond fully filled!! Gonna be epic once it’s all established 🎣
Beautiful video , beautiful family. Hope the best for you !
whoa, some undertaking project.
Randomly chilling and figured I would check and see if there are any updates and… excellent timing lol
The stars in the sky are stationary. What you are seeing in the time-lapse is the rotation of the Earth. The same way you see telephone polls zoom past the truck as you drive along. One of my favorite parts of time lapse.
Great to see more progress!
One day soon this place will make anglers of all ages very happy. It’s almost there! Awesome night laps footage too!
Sadly, I don't think the ducks will be able to enjoy the pond as much as you would like. That hawk will be their demise.
I also think so
Don’t get attached to the ducks, it’s a matter of time. Not much you can do about it unfortunately.
@@CA-sl2xw My exact thoughts! Don’t get too attached to the ducks and be prepared to tell the daughter that “they flew away”?
