Hello and welcome! Are you planning on keeping the fish? The number and size will help with determining what type of filter you may need. If you can post some pictures that's great. We all love to see new fish homes!

If you could do a bog for that big pond perhaps that would be the best route. Here is a guy who did one: https://ozponds.com/🧱-from-swimming-pool-to-wildlife-haven-bruces-bog-filter-build/

Welcome to the forum!
Post some pictures!
Post some pictures!
People have addressed the pool filter question before and the answer has generally been no - the debris from a pond is too large to be handled by a pool filter. But you could certainly add a bog filter to the pond - show us some photos and we'll give you some ideas!
