License and access permit
Delaware fishing license where required and a Delaware FIN where required. Check current freshwater limits, pond access rules and applicable trout-stamp requirements.
When you can go
Use the official area rules for current species seasons, legal hours and any area-specific closures. This record does not confirm access for a particular date.
Area restrictions
Use mapped public access; nearby homes and other shoreline may be private. No-wake rules apply to Delaware public freshwater ponds. Confirm current size, daily and special pond limits.
Plan with the official agency
The agency documents ordinary recreational fishing or a developed public fishing access at this named place, and the state sells ordinary fishing licenses directly. This record excludes controlled events and separately restricted activities; it does not promise a space or a catch.
No lottery is required for the described access and species. Other hunts on the same property may require a drawing. Check current seasons, closures, check-in and capacity before traveling; open access does not reserve an exclusive spot.
Agency sources reviewed 2026-10-07. Named pond and county are verified in DNREC public fishing pond inventory. The pond-specific species map should be checked before choosing a target fish; no per-pond species are assumed here. Public entry is arranged with the agency, with no Back40 booking fee.
