fishing ponds

Angler's small lakes

Fishing ponds are small bodies of water stocked with fish for recreational angling.

They may be natural or man-made, often maintained by private landowners, clubs, or public parks.

Unlike lakes or rivers, fishing ponds are typically managed environments where fish populations are controlled: The kids spent Saturday afternoon at the fishing pond catching bluegill.
