Despite relatively good water quality, Appleton Park Pond frequently winterkills apparently due to oxygen depletion that results from large amounts of decaying plant matter. Since 1968 numerous attempts have been made to establish game fish populations by stocking largemouth bass, walleye, black crappie, and bluegill. However, all these species have failed to develop sustaining populations apparently due to winterkill conditions. Further attempts to establish game fish populations are not appropriate, unless aeration can be successfully provided. Naturally sustaining populations of white sucker, black bullhead, brook stickleback, and fathead minnow exist in this lake. Future management efforts should concentrate on preserving or enhancing the quality of Appleton Park Pond's habitat.
