Anglers may saltwater fish from the refuge shoreline in accordance with State regulations. In additions, anglers may saltwater fish and shellfish in Ninigret Pond from the refuge shoreline from legal sunrise to legal sunset, and in accordance with State regulations.  Each spring the refuge partners with the State to host an annual fly-tying workshop (held at the classroom at Kettle Pond Visitor Center) coupled with fishing in a cove along the trail to Grassy Point at the East entrance.
