[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 661232, member: 4362"] On the other side of the farm I'm trying to weasel out of fencing I ran a single strand of high tensile wire along the edge of the creek and sometimes the high water mark. I put the wire 30 inches off the ground and have turned the cows in this area without any problem. I'm running 6-8000 volts. This creek is more in line with what you are describing so I would say it would work well - especially if the fence is set back from the edge of the creek a few feet. Cows will definitely get a good ground if they touch the fence when they are standing in mud. I doubt they would push the issue more than once. [/QUOTE]
