Glad When Winter's Here!

Its ok if your pond is crystal clear so as you can see the leaves on the bottom and remove them.

If its not clear get a net over it.

Nah, I like the natural approach          

Me too, the ponds bloomin full of leaves from the apple tree but i don't want to cover it. I just try to net out as much as possible.

chop down the apple tree then and go to Asda

Mine is pea soup. Better get a cover made.

if you pond is 4 feet deep and crystal clear and you can see the tench . . just think about the Herons ! what can they see . . maybe I should send the one that patrols my house around to yours

I had the same problem - got a UV thingy for my birthday and now its clear as tap water. I cover the pond for the few weeks that the leaves are falling with the same mesh I use to cover the veggie seeds when they are sown, its no bother and you can hardly see it. Just a few bobs-worth of netting from the garden centre, saves a lot of messing with rotting leaves.
