• Tackle & Baits

  Our records carry no access rule either way. There is somewhere to leave the car, half a mile off. There is a jetty half a mile off, worth knowing on a busy day. A recognised fishing spot is mapped about half a mile away. State or provincial rules still apply whatever the bank status. Some stretches are reserved and marked as such on the ground. White Swan Lake, 0.9 miles away, makes the obvious fallback. What applies at Chesapeake City East Disposal Area may have changed since it was mapped.
