Why does the transition of light waves from water to air make it seem as if fish and other things in a pond are shallower than they actually are?

Answer:

When light gets in contact with water, it emerges into the air, and then it speeds up, which makes it look shallower than it actually is.

Answer:

Refraction

Explanation:

Light rays reflected from the fish are refracted at the surface of the water, but the eyes and brain trace the light rays back into the water as thought they had not refracted, but traveled away from the fish in a straight line. This effect creates a "virtual" image of the fish that appears at a shallower depth.
