I don't have a pond yet, but I have started on some rules that I would probably have in place. These are pretty common sense:
* No utilizing pond for ANY purpose without specific permission from owner.
* All fishermen are required to fill out the provided fishing catch log.
* No live/dead bait may be brought in and used without permission.
* Only circle hooks allowed and no barbs allowed on hooks (pinch them down).
* All fishermen are required to follow Harvest Regulations.
* Any species caught not listed on Fish Stocking and ID board, notify owner right away.
* Obey all No Fishing Zones (NFZ) marked on the pond map.
* No Fishing in or near the marked swimming area.
* Swimming not allowed without permission and designated adult supervision (if under age of consent).
* Swimming allowed in designated zone only.
* Wet hands before handling fish. Keep handling of fish to a minimum.
* No culling allowed.
* Use provided trash receptacles.
