As for cover, I'd make plans on contacting your local big box store right before Christmas and arrange to pick up ALL of their unsold Christmas Trees the day after Christmas. You can make cheap brush piles with them, put a big pile in the deepest part of the pond for cover for the fish during the winter, etc.

An overhead view of the pond with the pond depths marked off will help determine what cover to put in the pond, and the type of fish you will stock also partially determines what type of cover will work the best.
