Sounds like a stock pond ???.

Personally I prefer a bit of a challenge… a runs water is probably like catching fish in a barrel, with not much skill involved , and maybe even fish that are conditioned to react to the sound of a spod ( had to look that up ) splashing and depositing foreign bodies called, er, Boilies , or maybe Pellets ? that would never appear anwhere without first being invented and sold at stupidly high prices to people who like catching conditioned fish .
Even Spam is an alien concept to fish, or would be if people did not buy it and chuck it in for the fish to eat.

I know that many people will probably disagree with me when I say that camping out to catch over stocked , overgrown fish in ponds is for people who dont know any different.

And on that note I will bow out as I may be getting into deep water ( not a runs water though )

?
