Fishing

Harrington Beach State Park

Surf fishing for salmon and trout draws visitors to Harrington Beach and Lake Michigan. Anglers will also enjoy fishing from the shore of the 26-acre Quarry Lake and Puckett’s Pond. People can catch trout, crappies, bluegills and other panfish. Quarry Lake and Puckett’s Pond are part of the urban fishing program.

fishing license and a Great Lakes salmon and trout stamp, available at local hardware stores and other outlets, are required for anglers.

Anglers of any age may check out basic fishing equipment free of charge at the park office. This equipment was donated by the Tackle Loaner Program. Call the park office to find out what equipment is available.
