Duck pond possibly with fish?

[Lourdie]

Hi so we're thinking about getting fish with our duck pond. We have 2 ducks and 2 chickens. Our backyard is not too big but not too small. Our fear is that our ducks will eat all of the fish. Any solutions? And we live in Michigan, so any good fish breeds?

If given access to them, the ducks will eat the fish eventually.

We have a very large pond, big enough to row around in. We have never had fish, but our ducks hunt and eat all other living things in the pond the can fit down their throats. Large frogs, small snakes, ect. I believe they would love fish to hunt and eat. Also, it is remarkable how far under the water they can dive and swim! They disappear under the water on one side of our dinghy and pop up 20+ feet away on the other side.
