Cameron Park Pond - CA

Cameron Park Pond in Cameron Park, California, serves as an accessible urban fishery, primarily sustained by regular stocking of rainbow trout from late fall through spring, ensuring consistent catch rates for light tackle anglers.

The pond also supports resident warmwater species, including catfish, largemouth bass, and abundant panfish (bluegill, crappie), which provide reliable action year-round. Trout are effectively targeted with PowerBait or small inline spinners. Catfish respond to traditional bottom baits, while bass can be engaged with soft plastics or small lures around cover.

Access is excellent, with ample bank fishing opportunities within a public park setting, featuring convenient amenities. All anglers aged 16 and above are mandated to possess a valid California fishing license. Adherence to general California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) regulations concerning bag limits and other stipulations for community ponds is compulsory, ensuring a compliant and productive recreational experience.
