Fishing Licence for Granite Reef Underground Storage Project

An Arizona fishing licence covers this water — it is on AZGFD's Fishing Waters list. (Community Fishing Program ponds are also covered by the low-cost resident Community licence. Tribal waters need a tribal permit.)
Public access
Waters here are on AZGFD’s Fishing Waters list and open to the public; most Arizona trout water is on National Forest, and river access on a private reach is by permission, at bridges and road crossings, or on the public land it flows through. Tribal waters need a tribal permit, not an Arizona licence
The general Arizona trout limit is 4 (some waters 2 or catch-and-release) and the bass limit is 6, but native Apache and Gila trout are usually catch-and-release, Lees Ferry and several Rim streams are artificial-only, Colorado River striped bass have no limit, and the Community Fishing waters carry their own combined limits; always check the current Arizona Fishing Regulations
