About this list

126 have a reviewed public entrance in the planner. 15 more were checked and held back because public fishing access could not be confirmed from agency sources. The other 161 have not been reviewed yet. This is our trout-water inventory, not a list of every fishery in New York.

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.

126 waters

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