Definition of a Lake Manager

I often get asked where do you work? I respond "Herman Brothers Pond Management". The questioner then says "what kind of management????" then I have to change the pond to Lake Management for them to even comprehend what I am saying! Anyhow, it is kind of hard to keep babbling while posting, when you dont know proper grammer and english, so I will get to the point!

I take care of Lakes and Ponds for people who do not want to devote 1000's of hours intricately learning about what makes a body of water function properly. Or I guess mostly for people who have real jobs that require most of their time and energy and want to actually enjoy their lake when they do have some free time.

From the beginning to the end to everything in between, basically all things water! Here is a short list of what we do for folks with water.

• Design Lakes
• Map Lake Contours
• Stock Millions of Fish
• Create Proper Habitat
• Install Aeration Systems
• Implement Feeding Programs
• Electrofish for Surveys
• Trap for Surveys and Removal of unwanted fish
• Monitor Water Quality
• Control Unwanted Aquatic Vegetation
• Plant Native Vegetation
• Build Docks and Decks
• Build Custom Pontoon Boats
• Sell and Ship our Favorite Lake Products Nationwide
• Drumroll PLEASE.....................but our absolute most favorite part of our job would be to Take People Fishing!!! We take our clients and their families guided fishing on their own lakes, we take people like grandparents and their grandkids fishing on our lakes, and we take friends and family fishing at various secret locations across the nation!!! We live, breath (i guess stink would be a better term), and eat FISHING! At all times, I know where the fish live, what they want to eat, why they want to eat, and how to get them to eat! I have all the equipment you could possibly ever need to catch fish and on the very few days that for some reason the fish just would not open their mouths, we have an electrofishing boat that will get the job done....just kidding.....kind of. Anyhow, I would like to note that 100% of our fishing trips were very successful! I have places, species, and equipment to catch fish 365 days a year!
• .......The absolute worst part of our job (the part that I know nothing about, and desperately need to get someone hired) would be all the behind the scenes work that is associated with running a business. Like making sure Uncle Sam and Rod Blagoavich get their money, and making sure all the bills get paid on time, and making sure all the other paperwork and boring stuff gets signed and mailed and keeping track of this and that and whatever else.....you get the point?
