Best method to line a pond?

I have a hole about 10 feet wide by 10 feet long and 3-4 feet deep.

Is it best to buy a liner or concrete.

We plan to put catfish and other wildcaught fish in it when complete.
Answers:
concrete will probably be less expensive but it could develop a crack
the 20 yr guaranteed pond liner is costly but worth it
you can also purchase plastic sheeting (comes in 100 ft rolls)
that is used in construction business, it is usually 6 mil thick
and will last a couple of years as long as noone walks onit or punches and holes in it (be sure to put padding down first)
concrete is more expensive and more work..
up to you. might as well build a swimming pool.

most people line it.
I agree with the first post. But the liner is pretty pricey too. Check around and see which is cheaper.
