Fishing - 6/16/2013
The ponds offer bluegill, crappie, large mouth bass, pumpkinseed, perch, catfish and rainbow trout. Trout fishing is excellent during the spring and fall. When the fish are biting, the park is a great place to teach children how to fish. Check either the main page fishing report or the "Conditions" report for updated information. Bowfishing for carp is permissible with a valid fishing license.
