Thanks for your local knowledge (and everybody else's comment also!)

What should I plant it with? Today there was only algae at the pond and lot of red stemmed plants with no leaves. If I recall, last summer there was a lot of red leafed plants, presumably these stems would grow into plants! :-) I didn't see any fish at all from the shore and there were 3 kids fishing, no bites, but their dad did say he has taken sunfish from there before.

Saw 3 HUGE, must have been foot and a half carp/koi/goldfish under the foot bridge near Alewife Station.
