if its in a park then its probably council controlled. First step would be to ring council and ask. They will have a specific department so just ask to be put through to whoever controls either parks or fisheries im sure they can help.

 

If i was going to find out myself and i have a walk round on a warm day with a load of maggots and bread and some polarizing sunglasses if possible. If there silver fish in there you will get them feeding on that and close to the top to so you will be able to see if theres fish there or not.

 

Otherwise, head down with a rod and just give it a whirl!

There is a lot of work going on in a number of park lakes and ponds in my part of London and I get the feeling once complete it will only be small fish being returned
