That is what I was thinking also Esshup. Looks like what floats on my pond when it breaks loose from the bottom.

Wow what potential! But like so much of Mexico, potential that is likely not going to be realized. Wife and I used to travel a lot in Mexico. So much potential. That could be a couple of really nice ponds with a week or two worth of heavy equipment work.

There may not be any fish in the ponds because none were ever stocked? Unless other ponds/rivers are in the near area, no one may have ever made the effort. Looks like critter life is there so likely fish could live there.

The pesticides from runoff might be a problem but I doubt it. If excessive herbicides likely would not see the weeds and grass around the pond. If insecticides were at lethal levels likely not see the insects in the pond. With the turbidity of the water, I would not be surprised if you did not see fish even if there were some.

Maybe make up a minnow trap or fish trap and throw it in? Some different things on U-tube on how to make traps out of various materials.

Do you know the owner to ask to put in fish? I thought it was public land?

What area Mexico? What city is in the background if you don't mind saying?
