pond fishing
Small water angling
Pond fishing is angling in small, enclosed bodies of fresh water rather than lakes, rivers, or the ocean.
Ponds are typically stocked with bass, bluegill, catfish, or trout, making them accessible for beginners and casual anglers: We spent Saturday morning pond fishing at my uncle's farm.
The term evokes a relaxed, low-stakes style of fishing compared to more technical pursuits.
