The reservoir will be open Wednesday through Sunday, from dawn to dusk. Mondays and Tuesdays will be reserved for essential maintenance. Previously, the reservoir was only open for fishing three days a week.
Visitors can use their own gear and enjoy a brand-new fishing pier or cast a line from the shore at no cost.
Parking and restrooms are available, including a handicap accessible restroom. You must bring your own cooler, chair, water, and snacks. Additional condiments will be offered a later date.
The MAWSS plan will create an entirely new recreational amenity in Mobile County – one that does not exist anywhere else. It will allow for convenient, affordable fishing and boating and prove a recreational option for schools, civic groups, and people who do not own their own boat.
