Default Pick axe-type implement for helping to dig pond?

Hi All

I've dug a large hole for a pond, using a digger, and now need a more subtle approach to finish it off. I'd like to use something like a pick-axe to help me shape the rim and get a bit of extra depth here and there.

Just wondering what the best tool for this job might be, or even if there might be a specialised implement of some kind. A normal fork and spade would do the job eventually, but don't have quite the power I need on what is pretty stony ground.

Thanks for any suggestions.
