Naperville Park District’s rules for fishing can be found in Section 2.19 of Ordinance 641. Fishing is also available on the banks of the DuPage River.

Upcoming Improvements/Construction
May Watts Park Restoration Project
Woody invasive plants, including black alder and pear trees, are being removed along the pond shoreline to better stabilize the area around the pond, minimize erosion, and enhance water quality. Invasive plants also will be removed from the hill near Whispering Hills Drive to create a healthy prairie ecosystem. Learn more
