FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I need experience to fish at your ponds?
Not at all! We welcome beginners and provide basic instruction. Our staff is always happy to help first-timers learn the basics.

Q: Can I release fish back if I don't want to keep them?
No, you keep what you catch as these fish are raised specifically for harvest. This ensures the best quality fishing experience for all visitors.

Q: How should I store my fish after catching them?
Bring a cooler with ice. We can help you clean your fish, and they'll stay fresh on ice for your trip home. Fresh trout should be eaten within 1-2 days or frozen for longer storage.

Q: What's the best time of day to fish?
Early morning and evening are traditionally productive, but our well-stocked ponds provide good fishing throughout the day.

Q: Can we bring our own food for a picnic?
Absolutely! Many families enjoy making a day of it with a picnic lunch.

Q: Is the facility wheelchair accessible?
We strive to make our ponds accessible to everyone. Please call ahead so we can ensure we meet your specific needs.

Q: How many fish can we catch?
You can catch as many fish as you want. You pay for what you catch.

Q: What makes your trout different from store-bought?
Our trout are raised in clean spring water and harvested fresh. The difference in taste and texture is remarkable compared to frozen, store-bought fish.

Q: Do you offer tours of the fish farm?
