stocked pond
Preloaded fishing hole
A stocked pond is a body of water that has been artificially supplied with fish, typically for recreational fishing or aquaculture.
The fish—often bass, trout, or catfish—are introduced rather than naturally occurring: The resort maintains a stocked pond for guests.
Pay-to-fish operations sometimes advertise "no license required" because the pond is privately stocked and managed.
