Call natural resources before you start. They will take a core sample and see if it will hold water. When we expanded ours they came out and showed me areas that would and wouldn’t hold.

Do this as your first step - USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service. LINK. As stated they can check suitability of soil to hold water, can design the pond at no cost to you, and might be some potential cost sharing opportunities (that changes from year to year) - ask. Should be able to provide some rough estimates on cost to build.
