Not only will this tell you what kind of fish you have, but will also give you information about those particular fish. If you have bluegill sunfish in a good array of all sizes, your pond management program is off to a good start. If you notice you have way too many small ones, less that 3 inches long, this tells you that you don't have enough predator fish.
If it is bass you are interested in, check to see if you have a good array of this year's bass (ca. 2 inches), last year's bass (7-9 inches), and look to see if your two pound and larger bass are robust and in good shape.
Another good way to find out about your pond is to talk with the previous owner and ask him if several large fish have been caught. But more importantly, were those fish taken out or released back into the water?
For future reference, it is always a good idea to keep a log book of all the fish that are caught in your pond, and how many of those fish were kept and how many were released. This will help you make good pond management decisions in the future.
