Fish species to expect

Rocky point and lighthouse shoreline; shore anglers find perch and walleye. Target species often include perch and walleye in nearshore rocky areas and points.

Best places to cast

Fish rocky points near the lighthouse and nearby dropoffs; use jigs and live bait for perch and walleye.

Reading water and signs

Watch for baitfish schools and diving birds; thermoclines and dropoffs often concentrate fish.

Approach and etiquette

Respect park rules and private property. Use designated access points and pack out all trash.

Essentials to bring

Nearshore gear polarized glasses and safety equipment for shore fishing.
