  No access rule appears in what we hold. This is a natural basin, not a dammed one. There is no mapped parking or launch close by, which usually means walking in. One rod, a handful of hooks and floats, and a few small lures are enough for this water. A landowner's word beats anything printed elsewhere. Fishing rules and camping rules are set separately here. Runnalls Lake at 1.4 km is the sensible second choice. Nothing on Teddybear Lake should be assumed from this page alone.
