Fishing Spots for Young Kids

[Piratefan4life]

I have two kids under 5 years old that I would love to take fishing.  Anyone have a good place that iI dont need a boat for to catch like some little perch or something with them.

How far are you willing to drive and from what area?

[Piratefan4life]

[Bucof2010]

Try that spot in Lumberton its a nice place and you don't have to worry about your kids tangling lines with other people or anything like that.

Claiborne Park , I don't think you can keep them but they will catch perch all day.

in Mauriceville there is a canal that crosses FM1130 two or three times. i live in Mauriceville and i fish there all the time. nuttin real big but lots of perch, little bass, and mud cat. havent been in a few months but ive been seein lots of families out there fishin so i guess the fish are bitin.

[rEdNecK89]

there is also a canal that crosses HWY 87 goin towards deweyville. there is also a pond by club 87 through the woods but might need a four wheeler to get to. i like canals for perch fishin cause they are often overlooked by most people but lots of fun when you find a perch bed.

also in Bridge City you can take your kids crabbin and they can also catch little croaker and black drum. maybe even a few reds. there are lots of spots like Baileys Road or closer by the Rainbow and Memorial Bridges to crab or fish off the bank

[Bucof2010]

I love it down there by the bottom of the rainbow bridge ridiculous amounts of crabs and occasional reds down there

There is a stocked catfish pond at one of the parks on Dam B.  My granddaughters, 3 of em,

have all caught their first catch there.  I don't sure of the name of it, cause my son took em,

not me, but if interested I can get the name for you.

Oh I've been there...last time I went we put the fish in the back of my truck and after an hour all four tires imploded from the weight

I don't know if you'd call it "fishing" or not but if you take your kids crabbing they will have absolute blast.  I went to Pleasure Island and mopped up on em. My kids were constantly catching and we had the time of our life.

[thetragichippy]

I do have a question.......I think I already know the answer, but I'll ask anyway.

If your kids are to young for a fishing license, you bring them crabbing and do not participate......do you as the adult need a license (or stamp)??

P.S.  I have one...just curious

Well crap I thought I was all legal.  Glad I didn't get caught.  How much extra are these money grabbing items?

Fresh/Salt and stamp is $45.00 I think

[tvc184]

If you have the freshwater license already, the stamp is $10 for saltwater. If you buy them as a package deal, the "All Water Package" is $38 total. I think it is up for renewal August 31st.
