Hello,I am from NW Ohio have three ponds.
One is a shallow wetland half acre pond about 3' deep five years old.
Second one is an acre and a half wetland pond with deep ends being 5' deep, five years old. Both of those are for wildlife, bigger one has bass and sunfish and channel cats in it and lots of frogs...smaller has minnows turtles and frogs. Both have wood duck boxes on them that get used multiple times in spring.

Third pond we just put in, over an acre 21' deep for swimming and fishing stone around whole pond. Put a bunch of structure in it in the deep half all either plastic or concrete, other half of pond is for swimming that end is 15'ish deep with a beach. Will be stocking this pond with minnows/bluegill/large and smallmouth/perch/channel cats and a few walleye, maybe one pike.
