The fishing ponds of rural landowners’ dreams become realities when they combine thorough planning with careful construction. All it requires is a suitable plot of land, the time and energy to plan effectively, and the financial resources to pay for professional services.

Planning for Fishing Pond Construction

According to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources website, Ohio Pond Management: Pond Construction page, some properties are more suited to pond construction than others. Consulting a topographical map of the area will reveal vital information about the watershed. Where does water flow on the property? Dams should not be constructed to obstruct the flow of existing streams, since such a barrier would have severe negative effects on areas currently dependent upon that waterway’s flow, and such streams may carry too much silt and undesirable organisms into the pond.

Water that fills the pond will come from the surrounding drainage areas. Elements to consider are the amount of rainfall the area receives, and uses of surrounding land. Fertilizers and animal waste may be in runoff from agricultural land, and contaminates from industry may also have released undesirable chemicals into the watershed. Watersheds that are too small will not produce enough water to keep a pond of suitable fishing habitat size filled. When watersheds are too large for the size of the pond, managing large influxes of water will be a problem.
