Thanks, Jules! I'm sure Gladys will work well in ponds. Don't you have a pond nearby? Please dipp one of your Gladys in and tell us how it sounds. Maybe you'll discover something interesting. That would be fun! I'll definitely consider Gladys. But I must admit that I'm also intrigued by Zach Poff's relatively simple DIY method. And that I'm thinking about sacrificing an AOM-5024 for a test. Many thanks!

Heinz, these will work fine in a pond. They are designed?almost identical to a NOAA paper on them and, like Naval Hydrophones. I have not measured the sensitivity but they are very low noise as well. Far better than encasing an electret microphone capsule.?

Hi Jules
First of all, thank you for your post and the instructions you put together to build these amazing Gladys hydrophones. Your humpback whale recording on YouTube is fantastic!
Did you ever checked how your hydrophone?performs in ponds? I'm asking because David Rothenburg mentioned in the ?that he heard almost nothing when he used a hydrophone that was made for whale?recordings inside ponds. It seems that he used a special and very sensitive hydrophone for his pond recordings instead. To record sounds that are only a few meters away? A hydrophone that even picks up sounds from nearby underwater creatures and plants?
I'm looking forward to experimenting!
Heinz

Yes! these:?? they work really well and I have gotten great sounds with them as have several renown field?recording people.

I started this thread some time ago and was wondering today if anyone has managed to build a hydrophone suitable for pond recordings? Or does anyone have any tips on how to build one? Many thanks!
