Boilerpipe Text
Even though fishing is a pretty popular thing to do in Singapore, you can’t just do this anywhere. You can only cast a line in designated fishing areas. These designated areas for fishing are usually located within natural parks and reservoirs , so you’ll be surrounded by beautiful nature while you wait for something to bite your bait.  Have your fishing rod ready! Here are the top fishing spots in Singapore. MacRitchie Reservoir Park — From: heshan.de Address : Lornie Rd, Singapore 298735  Operating Hours : Monday to Sunday—7 am to 7 pm MacRitchie Reservoir Park is the oldest reservoir in Singapore—it was constructed all the way back in 1868! Since this reservoir is more than a century old, it still houses remnants of the primary forest as well as other flora and fauna.  The waters of the reservoir are also rich in aquatic life. When I came here one time, I mostly got threadfin acara and snakehead murrells.  Bear in mind that the designated fishing area here is the stretch between the Paddle Lodge and Promenade. Also, there’s no fishing gear rental here, so be sure to bring your own.  Upper Seletar Reservoir Park — From: brainylynn Address : Mandai Rd Track 7, Singapore Operating Hours : Open 24 hours The Upper Seletar Reservoir Park is another fishing spot that has been around for quite some time. It was built in 1920 and officially opened to the public by Her Royal Highness, Princess Alexandra, the Honorable Lady Ogilvy on August 10, 1969.  This reservoir park is teeming with various wildlife , including long-tailed macaques. In terms of fish, the most commonly caught species include the butterfly peacock bass and spotted bonytongue. Lower Seletar Reservoir Park — From: unsercast Address : Yishun Ave 1, Lower Seletar Reservoir Park, Singapore 769139  Operating Hours : Monday to Sunday—7 am to 7 pm Contact Number : +6518004717300 At 4.3 hectares, Lower Seletar Reservoir Park has many facilities that everyone can enjoy. The highlights include Heritage Bridge and a water play area with fun water fountains and a bioswale rain garden.  For anglers, the fishing jetty is the best place to be. This jetty juts out into the reservoir waters, so you have more opportunity to reel in all kinds of fish.  So far, I’ve noticed that the most common fish species found here are Indonesian snakehead, clown knifefish, eartheater cichlid, and butterfly peacock bass.  Yishun Dam — From: jimhawk Address : ​​Yishun Ave 1, Singapore 769130 Operating Hours : Open 24 hours Yishun Dam is mostly known for being an Instagram-worthy spot because of its scenic view, but it’s also a popular destination for people who love recreational fishing.  Fishing is only allowed on the right side of the dam, which is the side opposite to the one facing the reservoir waters. It’s kind of tricky to fish here—it’s more likely that you won’t catch something—but if you’re lucky, you might get giant snakehead.  Pandan Reservoir Park — From: lhs5967 Address : 700 West Coast Rd, Singapore 608785  Operating Hours : Open 24 hours Located in the West Region, Pandan Reservoir was formed by damming the mouth of Sungei Pandan. Because of this, it’s the largest service reservoir in Singapore that provides non-potable water to the nearby industrial areas.  Additionally, the reservoir is home to a great variety of fish. In particular, anglers will be able to catch butterfly peacock bass, speckled peacock bass, longfin tilapia, and sheepshead. Kranji Reservoir — From: lieyinga Address : Kranji Way, Singapore Operating Hours : Monday to Sunday—7 am to 7 pm Since the Kranji Reservoir is houses a freshwater river that flows out into the sea, it can be considered an estuary as well. It’s also home to a marsh.  Because of this, Kranji Reservoir is a primefishing ground. There are also two designated fishing areas, so if you’re having trouble catching something in one area, you can head to the other one and try your luck there.  Most anglers catch prawns and crayfishes here, but along the rocky banks, eels and marble gobies are more common.    Woodlands Jetty — From: xcarrolx Address : Woodlands Waterfront Park, Admiralty Rd W, Singapore 759956 Operating Hours : Open 24 hours Woodlands Jetty is one of the main highlights of Woodlands Waterfront Park. At 400 meters, it’s the longest jetty in Singapore, so understandably, it’s hard to miss it.  The end of the jetty is the only spot you’re allowed to fish in this park, but don’t worry because the waters are teeming with aquatic life. Barracuda is the most common species caught here, which is great for anglers because this fish can weigh up to 6 kg! Aside from barracudas, you can also reel in mangrove jacks, golden snappers, and marine catfish.  Bedok Jetty — From: palmsangler_laurette  Address : East Coast Park Service Road, Singapore 449876 Operating Hours : Open 24 hours Contact Number : +6518004717300 Speaking of long jetties, another perfect example is Bedok Jetty, which is located in East Coast Park . The great thing about Bedok Jetty is that you get an excellent variety of fish.  Expert anglers can even reel in fish so huge you can’t help but be impressed. I’m still astounded by the fact that someone caught a 33-kg brown stingray in 2008! Aside from brown stingrays, people have caught cobias, shovel-nose sharks, and honeycomb whip rays.  Bedok Jetty is also known for being a wonderful spot for viewing sunsets , so if you come here late in the afternoon, you might be able to treat yourself to a beautiful sight.   Punggol Point Jetty — From: kwongyewwatt Address : Punggol Promenade Nature Walk, Singapore Operating Hours : Open 24 hours Punggol Point Jetty may be short and small, so you’ll probably have to bump into your fellow anglers because it can get crowded most of the time. That said, don’t completely dismiss this as a potential fishing ground because it has a lot to offer! Here, you’re most likely going to catch groupers, barramundis, rabbitfish, and sand whitings. You’re also free to bring home your catch, so you don’t have to worry about what to eat for dinner anymore.  Sembawang Jetty — From: traveltales_rv Address : Beaulieu Rd, Singapore 759837 Operating Hours : Open 24 hours Located in Sembawang Park , Sembawang Jetty is a historical jetty that’s been around since the 1940s. In fact, its construction was paused at first due to the occupation of Singapore, but ultimately, the Japanese completed it.  Even though it’s technically decades old, Sembawang Jetty still stands strong. It’s pretty popular among anglers, especially ones who are new to this activity, and you can reel in a surprising catch, such as spotted sicklefish, chermins, and groupers.  Pasir Ris Town Park Fishing Pond — From: elimchew77thstreet Address : Along, Pasir Ris Central, Opposite MRT Station, Singapore 519639  Operating Hours : Open 24 hours Pasir Town Park is best known for being a great hangout spot for couples and families, but anglers prefer the pond sitting right in the center of the park.  Unfortunately, fishing here isn’t free unlike the other places on this list, but if you can afford S$56 per session, I recommend giving this pond a try. Also, I recommend the Main Pond over the Pro Pond because you’re more likely to catch more there. A good variety of saltwater fish is what you’ll get in this fishing pond. Examples include sea bass, snappers, pomfrets, and groupers.  Serangoon Reservoir — From: caveman_sean Address : Pasir Ris Coast Industrial Park 6, Singapore Operating Hours : Open 24 hours Many anglers have Serangoon Reservoir as their favorite fishing spot because it’s cool and serene, but if you do come here, do keep in mind that it can be tricky to catch something here.  The challenge is mostly due to the weather and tide levels, so I recommend researching beforehand when the best time to fish in the reservoir is.  From my experience, I mostly got Mayan cichlids, tilapias, gobies, green chromides, archerfish, and peacock bass.  Lower Peirce Reservoir — From: charmainewhj  Address : Along Old Upper Thomson Road, Singapore Operating Hours : Open 24 hours If you’re in Central Region, Lower Peirce Reservoir is an ideal fishing spot for you. This reservoir, which is the second oldest in Singapore, was formed by impounding the upper parts of the Kallang River, so it’s home to many species of freshwater fish.  Some of the fish you’ll catch here include butterfly peacock bass, clown knifefish, Indonesian snakehead, and eartheater cichlid.  If you’re traveling with your child, they might be interested in catching yabbies on the shores. Catching yabbies is tricky and takes a lot of patience, but the activity might be a great way to bond with your children, especially if they’re interested in fishing as well. Pulau Ubin — From: typical_stefanos_travelbook If none of the fishing spots on the mainland caught your attention, you might be interested in trying out the islands off the coast of Singapore . One perfect example is Pulau Ubin.  Pulau Ubin is located northeast of mainland Singapore, and it’s mostly popular among avid cyclists and hikers because of its winding trails and beautiful scenery. This island is also home to various bodies of water, so anglers love coming here too.  The best places to fish on this island include NPCC campsite beach, Nordin Beach, Mamam Campsite, Jelutong Campsite, Pontoon Jetty, and Ubin Main Jetty.  Keep in mind that fishing isn’t allowed at all quarries in Pulau Ubin.  Bedok Reservoir Park — From: lhs5967 Address : 760 Bedok Reservoir Rd, Singapore 479245  Operating Hours : Monday to Sunday—7 am to 7 pm Contact Number : +6518004717300  Bedok Reservoir is the first reservoir to ever hold water sports activities in Singapore; the Launch of Water Sports Activity was hosted on October 17, 2004. Since then, thrillseekers come here to try kayaking, wakeboarding, sailing, and canoeing. Fishing is also pretty popular here because there’s a varied array of aquatic life to catch. From my experience, invasive fish species are commonly found here; examples include African walking catfish, tarpon, giant snakehead, and peacock bass.  M arina Reservoir — From: ab_boyce5 Address : Marina Reservoir Fishing Zone 1—5 Geylang Rd, Singapore Marina Reservoir Fishing Zone 2—398 Kallang Rd, Singapore 339098 Marina Reservoir PUB Fishing Site—Kallang Riverside Park Operating Hours : Open 24 hours (for all sites) What makes Marina Reservoir a great place for anglers is that there are three fishing zones to choose from. So, you have more chances of reeling in some great fish, and if you don’t catch something in one zone, you can always try in the other ones.  Peacock bass is the most common species caught here, but there’s also the possibility of finding exotic species like an alligator gar (which is native to North America) and Sunda river catfish (native to large river systems in Malaysia and Indonesia).  Jurong Lake — From: mayukkg  Address : Yuan Ching Rd, Singapore Operating Hours : Open 24 hours Jurong Lake is the main attraction of Jurong Lake Gardens , and it’s where visitors engage in water sports activities or try to spot aquatic life. Jurong Lake is also a great fishing spot; the designated area is by the Southern Promenade.  Anglers can enjoy a mixed assortment of fish species. So far, I’ve caught butterfly peacock and speckled peacock bass and marble gobies, while my friends have reeled in Asian redtail catfish, and Mayan and Midas cichlids.  Kolam Ayer BC Waterfront — Fron: jmtvllog Address : 64 Kallang Bahru, Singapore Operating Hours : Open 24 hours Kolam Ayer BC Waterfront is the first project under the Active, Beautiful, Clean Waters (ABC) Program. Opened in 2008, this project features a 200-meter stretch of the Kallang River with lookout decks, interactive water elements, and a fishing ground. Japanese fish and catfish are the commonly caught species here, but you can also find other species like giant snakeheads.  Sometimes, you might also spot a few otters in the river! When you do, please only watch them from a distance.  Pelton Canal — From: antolin0916 Pelton Canal is part of the Pelton Canal Park Connector, so most people just pass it by when they’re jogging or hiking. But if you’ve been into recreational fishing for a while, you’ll know that many anglers flock to this canal to fish.  In fact, this spot is so popular that you’ll probably have a lot of competition when you come here—even if you arrive earlier in the day. If you’re skilled enough, you might be able to take home various fish, including carp, tilapia, and catfish.  Rochor Canal — From: ramboll_studio_dreiseitl Often called “the artery of Singapore” because it snakes through the center of the island, Rochor Canal houses a thriving ecosystem of aquatic life, such as catfish, barramundi, and tilapia.  Because of this, the canal is a prime spot for anglers. Currently, there are five legal fishing decks along the canal: one at Bugis Junction, two at Sim Lim Square, and two more at Sungei Road. Changi Beach Park — From: jimmytst Address : Nicoll Dr, Singapore 498991  Operating Hours : Open 24 hours Changi Beach Park is located all the way out in East Singapore , so many anglers might think it’s too far for them. But don’t let its distance stop you from coming here to fish.  The variety of fish to catch here is pretty impressive; personally, I’ve reeled in goatee croakers, veined catfish, sickle fish, and squids. Meanwhile, other people have reported catching barramundis and brown stingrays.  I recommend coming to Changi Bay Park sometime between November and March since this is the period when there aren’t that many people swimming in the water.  Pang Sua Canal   — From: gorilla240165 Address : Choa Chu Kang Walk, Singapore Operating Hours : Open 24 hours Pang Sua Canal is another project under the ABC Waters Program, so it looks like a green park. There’s a deck where people can chill and enjoy the scenery as well as a rock stream.  Anglers will also love this place because it’s home to a diverse set of fish. Some of the most commonly caught species here are tilapias, barramundis, giant snakeheads, and peacock bass.  From my experience, May to October is the best time to stop by Pang Sua Canal because that’s when the water level in the canal is at its peak.

I’m still astounded by the fact that someone caught a 33-kg brown stingray in 2008\! Aside from brown stingrays, people have caught cobias, shovel-nose sharks, and honeycomb whip rays.

Also, I recommend the Main Pond over the Pro Pond because you’re more likely to catch more there. A good variety of saltwater fish is what you’ll get in this fishing pond. Examples include sea bass, snappers, pomfrets, and groupers. ### **Serangoon Reservoir** > [View this post on Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/p/CNfE3l5B-VH/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading) > > [A post shared by Sean Thye (@caveman\_sean)](https://www.instagram.com/p/CNfE3l5B-VH/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading) — From: caveman\_sean **Address**: Pasir Ris Coast Industrial Park 6, Singapore **Operating Hours**: Open 24 hours Many anglers have Serangoon Reservoir as their favorite fishing spot because it’s cool and serene, but if you do come here, do keep in mind that it can be tricky to catch something here.

From my experience, I mostly got Mayan cichlids, tilapias, gobies, green chromides, archerfish, and peacock bass. ### **Lower Peirce Reservoir** > [View this post on Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/p/Ct8eIpyyAn7/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading) > > [A post shared by Charmaine Wong (@charmainewhj)](https://www.instagram.com/p/Ct8eIpyyAn7/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading) — From: charmainewhj **Address**: Along Old Upper Thomson Road, Singapore **Operating Hours**: Open 24 hours If you’re in Central Region, Lower Peirce Reservoir is an ideal fishing spot for you.

Some of the fish you’ll catch here include butterfly peacock bass, clown knifefish, Indonesian snakehead, and eartheater cichlid. If you’re traveling with your child, they might be interested in catching yabbies on the shores.

One perfect example is Pulau Ubin. Pulau Ubin is located northeast of mainland Singapore, and it’s mostly popular among avid cyclists and hikers because of its winding trails and beautiful scenery. This island is also home to various bodies of water, so anglers love coming here too.

But if you’ve been into recreational fishing for a while, you’ll know that many anglers flock to this canal to fish. In fact, this spot is so popular that you’ll probably have a lot of competition when you come here—even if you arrive earlier in the day. If you’re skilled enough, you might be able to take home various fish, including carp, tilapia, and catfish. ### **Rochor Canal** > [View this post on Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/p/CML0UohM23f/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading) > > [A post shared by Ramboll Studio Dreiseitl (@ramboll\_studio\_dreiseitl)](https://www.instagram.com/p/CML0UohM23f/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading) — From: ramboll\_studio\_dreiseitl Often called “the artery of Singapore” because it snakes through the center of the island, Rochor Canal houses a thriving ecosystem of aquatic life, such as catfish, barramundi, and tilapia.

Even though fishing is a pretty popular thing to do in Singapore, you can’t just do this anywhere. You can only cast a line in designated fishing areas. These designated areas for fishing are usually located within [natural parks](https://www.bestinsingapore.co/singapore-natural-parks/) and [reservoirs](https://www.bestinsingapore.co/best-reservoir-parks-singapore/), so you’ll be surrounded by beautiful nature while you wait for something to bite your bait. Have your [fishing rod](https://www.bestinsingapore.co/best-fishing-rods-singapore/) ready! Here are the top fishing spots in Singapore. ### **MacRitchie Reservoir Park** — From: heshan.de **Address**: Lornie Rd, Singapore 298735 **Operating Hours**: Monday to Sunday—7 am to 7 pm [MacRitchie Reservoir Park](https://www.bestinsingapore.co/guide-to-macritchie-reservoir/) is the oldest reservoir in Singapore—it was constructed all the way back in 1868! Since this reservoir is more than a century old, it still houses remnants of the primary forest as well as other flora and fauna. The waters of the reservoir are also rich in aquatic life. When I came here one time, I mostly got threadfin acara and snakehead murrells. Bear in mind that the designated fishing area here is the stretch between the Paddle Lodge and Promenade. Also, there’s no fishing gear rental here, so be sure to bring your own. ### **Upper Seletar Reservoir Park** — From: brainylynn **Address**: Mandai Rd Track 7, Singapore **Operating Hours**: Open 24 hours The Upper Seletar Reservoir Park is another fishing spot that has been around for quite some time. It was built in 1920 and officially opened to the public by Her Royal Highness, Princess Alexandra, the Honorable Lady Ogilvy on August 10, 1969. This reservoir park is teeming with various [wildlife](https://www.bestinsingapore.co/wildlife-to-see-singapore/), including long-tailed macaques.

The highlights include Heritage Bridge and a water play area with [fun water fountains](https://www.bestinsingapore.co/top-fountains-singapore/) and a bioswale rain garden. For anglers, the fishing jetty is the best place to be. This jetty juts out into the reservoir waters, so you have more opportunity to reel in all kinds of fish. So far, I’ve noticed that the most common fish species found here are Indonesian snakehead, clown knifefish, eartheater cichlid, and butterfly peacock bass. ### **Yishun Dam** — From: jimhawk **Address**: ​​Yishun Ave 1, Singapore 769130 **Operating Hours**: Open 24 hours Yishun Dam is mostly known for being an [Instagram-worthy spot](https://www.bestinsingapore.co/instagram-worthy-places-singapore/) because of its scenic view, but it’s also a popular destination for people who love recreational fishing.

Most anglers catch prawns and crayfishes here, but along the rocky banks, eels and marble gobies are more common. ### **Woodlands Jetty** — From: xcarrolx **Address**: Woodlands Waterfront Park, Admiralty Rd W, Singapore 759956 **Operating Hours**: Open 24 hours Woodlands Jetty is one of the main highlights of Woodlands Waterfront Park. At 400 meters, it’s the longest jetty in Singapore, so understandably, it’s hard to miss it. The end of the jetty is the only spot you’re allowed to fish in this park, but don’t worry because the waters are teeming with aquatic life.

Some of the most commonly caught species here are tilapias, barramundis, giant snakeheads, and peacock bass. From my experience, May to October is the best time to stop by Pang Sua Canal because that’s when the water level in the canal is at its peak.
