I would think you would need to be in the right sort of place to just dig a pond /lake and it fill with water and retain it during the summer months , we dug out a couple of flight ponds in what we thought was a wet boggy area , it filled up no problem but if we had a really dry spell it just dried up ..luckily it only happened on a couple of occasions and we never had fish in it to worry about ...just a thought ..

Dig deep ;)

 

I used to have a permission with two seemingly natural ponds, these things were 4-5m deep never dried up held fish and birds. Granted not many as they was probably about 100sqm surface. So really small. But they did OK ;)
