In an effort to provide anglers with the best information possible, the Lake Metroparks' Fishing Report provides up-to-date information on fishing hotspots, recent activity by anglers and management activities by the Park District. Learn where the fish are biting and where fish have been stocked within the parks.

If you wish to share photos or information about your recent angling success within the parks with us please contact us at fish@lakemetroparks.com.

Summer is finally here...let's go fishing!

It seems that Summer has finally arrived here in Lake County.  It's a great time for families to get out and spend some time fishing together.  Lake Metroparks has many free fishing areas that are regularly stocked to make for some great fishing fun.  We also offer beginning fishing programs and fishing camps for kids, check at lakemetroparks.com for program listings and park locations.  Get your kids out for a day of fishing, hiking and picnicking....enjoy your Lake Metroparks and make some happy Summer memories.
