fishing poles available nearby?

[pixiedustforever]

I heard that fishing poles are available for rent in the
campground area. Can anyone confirm this?

If so, where and what is the current charge?
DS loves to fish - we want to surprise him in June!

Thanks in advance!

If you are willing to spend a little more, they have fishing excursions out on Bay Lake ...

Bass Fishing Excursions for blue gill. 2 hrs in length. Depart from Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort marina. Fishing guide and fishing equipment provided for up to five guests. For info and reservations call 407-WDW-PLAY (407-939-7529).

I believe that all fishing on property is catch and release and does not require a fishing license.

Yes, that's right. Strictly catch and release and no license required.
