If I remember correctly your place is on Martin - which is raised and lowered annually. When Alabama Power raises the water over the next couple of months the waves will begin washing it out, in the Fall when they lower the waves will continue to wash it away - until the footings are exposed, then it is just a matter of time without the proper amount of protection.


Geotextile fabric.

And that would probably be enough rock for a pond. On a lake with wake boats driving around, not even close.
