Dave Willis,
The goal I have for one of my ponds is to create a good panfishing hole for the neighborhood kids and myself. This includes both catch and release in addtion to providing an occasional meal. In addition to the fishing, a pond offers all kinds of cool stuff for a young curious mind to explore. Its amazing how many hours a kid will spend stalking that one big frog that always seems to get away at the last minute!
