How do minnows and one big bream get on a pond dam after a big rain?

After a big rain, minnows and a big bream can find their way onto a pond dam as water levels rise and overflow. The increased water flow can wash small fish, like minnows, into the dam area, while larger fish, such as bream, may follow them or be drawn in by the influx of food and habitat. Additionally, the surge creates new pathways for fish to move between different parts of the pond. The dam becomes a temporary habitat as these fish adapt to the changing conditions.
