The pond is supplied by the active Lyndon Fish Hatchery, which has been operating at this location since 1957.
The water used for the ponds is sourced from natural artesian springs located on the property.
The facility maintains a high stocking density, ensuring a very high success rate for catch-and-keep angling.
Because it is a private facility, Ontario provincial fishing licenses are not required for fishing here.
The site processes the catch on-site, meaning visitors leave with ready-to-cook trout.
Lyndon Fishing Pond is a private, pay-per-catch facility located at the Lyndon Fish Hatchery site in Wilmot, Ontario. The pond is explicitly managed for recreational angling, focusing primarily on rainbow trout. Visitors pay for the weight of the fish they harvest, with cleaning and filleting services provided on-site. The facility is family-oriented and designed to accommodate anglers of all experience levels without requiring a provincial fishing license. Fishing gear is available for rent, and bait is sold at the location.
The wooden dock area overlooking the main pond offers the clearest view of the water and surrounding trees.
Bring a large cooler with ice to ensure your catch stays fresh during your drive home.
Wear comfortable, waterproof footwear as the area around the pond can become muddy depending on recent weather.
Check the official website's live status updates before heading out, as extreme weather can impact pond accessibility.
Do not attempt to use your own live bait, as the facility strictly regulates bait to protect the hatchery's water supply.
Closed during the winter months when the pond freezes; generally operates from spring through late autumn.
Clean up your own bait containers and trash to maintain the water quality for the hatchery.
