There’s great fishing on the island, and if you catch something good to eat, our chef can cook it for you! When our naturalists offer fishing as an activity, you’ll be standing on the bank of a tidal creek or the beach. If you’d like to go fishing on your own, you’re welcome to take a bicycle equipped with a rod holder or fish off our dock! We have spinning reels and rods for fishing in the creek. Larger surf rods are reserved for guided surf fishing ventures. We can also provide gear for fly fishing for experienced fly fishermen. While we practice catch and release fishing, guests interested in keeping any of their catch may keep one fish (within legal size limits) per person per day and have it prepared by our kitchen. If you’d like to be taken on a guided, boat-based fishing trip, the office would be happy to provide you with contact information to arrange a trip with a local guide for an additional fee.
