Welcome to Crystal Lakes!
All non-members who fish in Crystal Lakes need permission from a Crystal Lakes (CL) owner and a guest fishing pass. Guest passes are sold in the CL office, or you may buy a Daily Guest Pass here.
Step 1: Get written permission to purchase guest passes from a CL property owner in good standing.
Use this form: Guest Permission Form.pdf. OR, the owner can write an email or note stating 1) Guests' names and dates to fish, and 2) Owner's name, filing/lot, and phone number. You must always carry this, either in print or downloaded onto your phone.
Step 2: Purchase guest passes for a specific date.
Guest passes are non-transferable and valid only for the guest named on the pass on the selected date. Photo ID is required for adults. Each pass holder may fish independently and bag 3 fish. Children age 6 and under don't need a pass but must apply bagged fish to an adult's limit. You may purchase an online guest fishing pass any time before you start to fish, but once purchased there are no changes or refunds.
Step 3: Open your ticket and either print, download, or take a screenshot. It must show the name, date, ticket number and QR code. Do not rely on cell service in Crystal Lakes.
Everyone needs their own ticket, on their person and easily accessible without cell service. Don't skip this step. It's your pass!
IMPORTANT: Your pass is valid only with immediate access to the permission form, ticket, and photo ID (age 16+). Do not rely on cell service in CL.
