Not interested in having my fish serve as a meal for him/her as ~jan's

What's a ponder to do?!

As long as your leaf netting is high enough above the water that he can't
stab thru, your fish should be safe. How about one of those rifles that
just shoots air? I always thought a paint gun would be kind of a good
message.... I doubt you'd want any getting in the pond though. ~ jan
