fishing??

[buckeye12]

We are staying at CSR and i've noticed that they have a marina, and my boyfriend and dad are wanting to bring some fishing poles with them and do some fishing. Does anyone know if you can fish at the resort?? We won't have time for them to do any actual fishing excursion just a little fishing while us girls are doing pool time or whatever. TIA!

I'm pretty sure the only place you can fish offshore is at Ft. Wilderness. They may be able to getaway with it, but Disney is pretty vigilant about this kind of thing, if only to protect the fishermen from other forms of wildlife, ie. gators and such.

Have you checked Port Orleans Riverside? I thought you could fish there also. Worth a look.

It looks like you can fish at specific locations at Fort Wilderness and Port Orleans Riverside. Go to the resort's webpage and click on "Recreation". Some of ther resports listed fishing, but they say "trips" which sounds liked a guided (and therefore paid) activity.

I didn't seen any information saying whether or not you needed to obtain a Florida fishing license if you're going to fish at WDW.

You can fish Hourglass Lake between Pop Century and Art of Animation.
