West Fork National Recreation Area Access
West Fork Fishing Access offers day-use fishing opportunities along the West Fork San Gabriel River, open weekends and federal holidays from 6 am to 10 pm ($5 per vehicle).
The site features restrooms and a gated service road providing easy access to a six-mile catch-and-release wild trout area, though note that the stretch between the 2nd bridge (1.
5 miles upstream) and Cogswell Dam requires barbless hooks and artificial flies only with zero bait allowed. A California fishing license is required, and dogs must be leashed.
