I have seen that done. My friends who lived off a reservoir also, did it in a checkerboard pattern. It took some time and creativity, but it worked!

You need a few posts, but string the heavy line back and forth. It only needs to be about every 6-7 feet or so, zig-zagged.

It doesn't interfere with visual openess for us humans, but the birds can see it. They can't get a clear entry and exit, and they'll leave you alone.
