Yes you can fish in the lake. I used to work there. The lake has fish warnings about dangerous PCP chemicals in some bottom dwelling fish in the lake. Its not healthy or wise to eat the fish. You could grow gills after eating them!

Fish consumption is not advised because of pollutants. Is it legal to use the fish as bait to fish in another lake?

Michael Chuong | Sep 24, 2018

Fishing are allowed, not recommended to eat the fish.

Bob Cottrell | Sep 24, 2018

Yes, but as others have pointed out, catch and release ONLY. DON'T EAT THE FISH!

Scott Havenook | Sep 24, 2018

Yes, fishing is allowed. There is a dedicated fishing pier. There are areas along the bank that are posted as No Fishing areas. For the most part, if it is not posted, it's OK to fish.

Fishing is allowed, but it's strictly catch and release because of PCB contamination from Ward Transformer releasing it into the ground and spreading it on roadsides in 1978. It drained into Lake Crabtree and can still be detected in the mud.

Fishing is restricted in certain areas. I would call fish and wildlife

Chris Harden | Sep 24, 2018

There are areas where people fish quite often at the park.
