About this list

54 have a reviewed public entrance in the planner. 122 more were checked and held back because public fishing access could not be confirmed from agency sources. The other 1,274 have not been reviewed yet. This is our trout-water inventory, not a list of every fishery in Massachusetts.

Plan from your current location or choose a city. City estimates are available from New York City, Philadelphia, Boston, Washington, DC, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Hartford, Providence, Albany, Syracuse, Rochester, Buffalo, Cleveland, Columbus, Detroit, Grand Rapids, Chicago, Minneapolis, Charlotte, Atlanta, Nashville, Knoxville, Denver, Salt Lake City, Boise, Bozeman, Albuquerque, Seattle and Portland, Oregon. Ordinary planning does not use the AI-search allowance.

“Access not reviewed” means public fishing permission and an entrance have not yet been checked for the planner; nearby parking or stocking alone is not enough.

54 waters

“Reviewed entrance” refers to the sourced access point, not the whole river. Check current signs, rules and closures before fishing.
