Gene,

Other than a fine article by Dave Willis in Pond Boss on the subject several months ago I started a thread on the same subject here. You may be able to glean some info from the posts. I would do what Dr. Willis said and put some brush bundles or christmas trees submerged along the edge of the pond and watch for egg strands. If there are males and females in the pond I wouldn't worry about them not being fertilized. Be aware there are a lot of eggs in those strands and you don't want to overplant.

Of course you don't need to set up a tank like I am as all you need to do is transfer the egg strands. Just make sure they are up off the bottom. Eggs that lay on the bottom will most likely die.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
