[QUOTE="CottageFarm, post: 904706, member: 16552"] Just to change the paradigm a bit. It is feasable to utilize stream/pond/lake water for watering livestock without allowing livestock direct access to the body of water. It's fairly common practice around here for ranchers who have water rights to the streams to pump the water to tanks, while fencing off the stream, preventing the direct access of livestock. As an avid flyfisher I certainly appreciate the land stewardship they are undertaking. It keeps the water cleaner, prevents streamside erosion and stream siltation, and it's really unpleasant to walk upstream looking for fish only to find a dead calf. [/QUOTE]
