Springwater Pond (Catfish Creek Conservation Area)
Aylmer, Ontario, Canada
Spring fed pond within popular Conservation Area that allows fishing. Pond has turtles, trout, catfish. Lots of lily pads. Apparently, air is pumped into one end of pond to slow down algae growth & provide oxygen for fish. You can see bubbling on the pond surface from the docks/testing area.
