Aiken County wildlife reserve open to public Saturdays in May

Fishing will be allowed at Crackerneck during Saturdays in May. In Skinface Pond, the limit on largemouth bass is set at two per person, per day, 14-inch minimum. Bluegill limits will be the same as state creel limits, 30 fish. Limited fishing opportunities are also available in three swamp lakes, but these require a jon boat for access. No fishing, boating or other uses are allowed in Upper Three Runs Creek.
