Can you fish at river bend park

Yes you can. As was said the lakes and ponds in the rear are less fished.

There's plenty of fishing in riverbend the front spots are a bit overfished. The back lakes are better stocked theres also three dams good for fishing too. Snook lake trout catfish midas cichlids brim blue gill and oscars frequent this area. The bigger lakes are well stocked with large mouth and small mouth bass as well as spotted bass
