Hi Jason, I Moved to Fresno from Pacific Grove CA/Carmel Monterey area in 1992. It took till 2017 for someone to show me this Hidden Gem. It has had some challenges last few years, the owner who had managed past away shortly after my first visit. Her grandson has stepped up and is running it now. I have shown up to fish at all different hours, in mornings come collect payment if you arrive in middle of the night. Fair warning, Porta potties are available in strategic areas, bring your drinking water, and Grey water. There are no water faucets. They're spaces for RV's that are flat but not really pull through friendly as you come into Campground I prefer tent camping so I drive out onto the strip that gives pond on you left and San Joaquin River on your right. There's also trails to follow up River for more good fishing. It also has a couple places to launch a kayak or small boat. What I enjoy is the feeling of ruffing it without that awful long drive up to mountains.
When we needed a spot it was only one hour before that we called and there was no problem. No you do not need a reservation. It's pretty dead, or at least when we went
