Huck Finn Rafts - Frontierland
Fun-seeking youngsters of all ages ferry across the Rivers of America in Disneyland's Frontierland to arrive on Tom Sawyer Island.  A real fort, an Indian cave, an old flour mill and a landing for catching real fish are just a few of the things to be found on this island made for exploring.
from around 1956/57

I read on-line that in the early years of the park that you could bring a fishing pole and fish at Catfish Cove, however, most of the fish ended up in the garbage can, so they stopped it.
