I'd try to net off the area where the eggs get
laid. But even then you stand a less than decent chance of saving the
young when they hatch. Another solution is to give them a place to hide
by
placing a large flat rock in the pond, and a few more in a stream if you
have one.

=========================
Using a new underwater can gill-net and kill fish. A large amount of
Hornwart and Elodea would give the young a place to hide until large enough
to move around freely. It would also attract water bugs and insects for
them to feed on.
