Talk to some of the people that run trot lines on our local rivers. Avoid fish from areas that have PCB advisories like Escambia Bay and lower River and our local bayous.
How deep are you going with your well? The main producing zone in Pensacola is about 100-220 ft down in most places. We have a sand and gravel aquifer and the Floridan is much, much deeper and salty in our region and full of pollutants from Monsanto's et al, deep well waste injection. Since I live next to a creek (Barnettmill Ck) I am thinking of just digging a deep hole by the creek with a rented backhole and using a trash pump to obtain water for irrigation. I live on a slope and need to calculate that factor for transporting water up the slope.
