Fishing with a Ranger

Fish with a ranger and check out our 1620ft pier!

Whether you've never fished or you're an experienced angler, Goose Island's pier has enough room for everyone! No tackle? No problem! We'll have fishing poles available through the Tackle Loaner Program on a first come first serve basis. We'll get started at 2:00pm, and go until we run out of bait (live shrimp if available). All ages and abilities welcome! No fishing license required.

Bring: sun protection (sunscreen, hat, sunglasses) and water.

Optional: bring a chair and your own tackle if you want.
