Fishing Pole Rental?

[dvcdudes]

I know you can rent (borrow if a member) fishing poles from Community Hall at BWV. Do they have the same thing at OKW? A few years back we were staying at BWV but went to visit OKW and I saw someone fishing off the grass at one of the waterways. We are plannig a trip (first stay at OKW) for the summer and won't be going into the parks all that much so I might be looking for some things to keep the kids busy.
Any info is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Not sure about the pole rental at OKW I know you can rent them at Dixie(Port Orleans Riverside) and also at Fort Wilderness not sure if you would like to spend a day over there and hang out and let the kids fish.

Thanks, I guess we might have to go over to Fort Wilderness. If any one else knows please post a reply,

Thanks

i keep telling dw i'm going to bring a pack fly rod and some bass bugs next trip, i can't speak yet about bwv but i know there are some very large bass at waterways in fw, i've camped there many times and have seen some really large early morning rises
i'd get up early some morning to go down to the friendship docks and chuck a bug, there are always some bait fish holding around there and i've also heard/seen evening rises in the bwv/bcv waters

the biggest bass I have caught there was 11 pounds we do a bass charter every trip it is well worth the money always lots of fun and always catch lots of fish.We usually rent a peddle boat or canoe over at FW and you are rightthere are lots of large bass in the area. Saw a gentleman fishing from the bank by his trailer/motorhome not sure to be exact and he caught what looked to be about a 6 or 7 pounder .

last July Hank's had a few fishing poles in the corner but i do not know if they are for rent or for the fishing charters.
I always bring my own just to wet a line, never caught anything from the bank but i do not care. I'am on vacation

Do you fish from the shore at OKW?
Maybe that was YOU I saw fishing from the grass a few years back.
