Fishing is permitted with a Big Canoe fishing license/day pass purchased from the Marina Shack. A Georgia fishing permit does not cover fishing in Big Canoe.

Renters must be 21 years of age to rent a Pontoon or Jon Boat. Renters must be 18 to rent a canoe.

Rental boats must be returned clean, with any trash placed in the trash barrel at the dock. Fines may be enforced if boats are not cleaned.

When renting equipment, please return to Marina no later than dusk and place the key in the Key Return box located under the American flag at the Marina shack.

Adult life jackets are stored on the rental pontoon boats. Life jackets
for children, jon boats, canoes, kayaks and paddle boards should be
obtained at the Marina office. Paddle Boarders and Children under 13
are required to wear a life jacket.

Fishing bait and gear is available at the Marina Shack. NO MINNOWS ALLOWED

Trout may not be thrown back. The Marina will take anyone's unwanted catch. Four trout is the limit per day per the Big Canoe fishing license.

Because Big Canoe is a wildlife preserve, and bears live here, the cleaning of fish is not permitted on boats or in the Marina vicinity.
