We will not be staffed during January and February 2019. However, we’ll be open every day using the Honor System (catch & release fishing only). No reservation is required. Simply sign in and deposit the $15/person fee in the Honor Box located inside the outhouse. There will not be any fishing poles available to rent, so bring your own. We’ll put bait out every morning which is available for your use until it’s gone each day. We’ll be staffed again for the new season starting in March 2019, when we’ll be open our usual Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Lincoln Fishery (formerly known as Big M Fishery) is a 20-acre catch and release fishing and recreation site located at 280 Westland Road in Lincoln, California. The cost is $15 to fish all day or $5 for each non-fishing patron. Patrons can bring their own fishing pole or rent one onsite for $3. Bait is also available for $3. The 5 fishing ponds range in size from 1/2 acre to 5 acres. The ponds are stocked with catfish, trout, blue gill and bass. There are several picnic areas and patrons are allowed to bring food and picnic supplies with them to make the day complete. A barbecue is also available for patrons to use. Founding owner and operator, Joe Parr, can be found mingling with the guests. Lincoln Fishery is licensed by the California Department of Fish and Game, which means patrons are not required to obtain one. The site is open Saturdays and Sundays for individuals and small groups of up to 4 people. Reservations are required in advance for groups of 5 or more.
