Fishing Tips

Check the tide before you go. Water levels and current change throughout the day. Tide movement can affect where fish feed and how much weight you need to keep bait near the bottom.

Start with natural bait. Shrimp and cut bait are practical options for exploring a new tidal fishing location. Use tackle suited to the current and the species you're targeting.

Bring spare tackle. Extra hooks, sinkers, and leader material can be helpful when fishing unfamiliar river structure.

Keep the area clean. Dispose of fishing line and bait containers properly, and leave picnic and park areas clear for other visitors.

Share the Boat Ramp and Dock

Because King's Ferry has both fishing access and a boat ramp, anglers and boaters need to share the waterfront courteously.

When boats approach a shared dock, reel in your lines and move rods and tackle out of the way. Give boat operators room to maneuver, pull alongside, and tie off safely. Keep fishing lines clear of the launch path.
