I'm going with the aperture reflection story over the aquaculture theory
for these reasons:
(a) the edges of these potential nets are not square but pretty well
conform to the curves of the pond - I'd expect a set of right angles
everywhere instead;
(b) I believe that aquaculture requires a steady flow of water - I
cannot see an upstream or downstream from these tanks/ponds;
(c) no road/track to the ponds - seems like you would want to truck out
your fish/prawns;
(d) no obvious surrounding infrastructure - I've been to a few
aquaculture sites and they typically had spawning tanks and all kinds of
other supporting structures - I recognize however the danger of applying
mostly US examples to a back-country Mexico operation

It appears to me that they are shallow ponds for raising fish or
prawns. They may have a net covering to keep birds from eating all
the critters or keeping the prawns from getting sunburned.
