Night fishing: New Hampshire allows fishing 24 hours a day on most waters; some designated trout ponds are restricted to daylight hours seasonally — check the current NHFG fishing digest for this water.
Boats: Lake Winnipesaukee, Squam, Sunapee and the other big lakes take full-size boats with developed ramps; many smaller ponds have only a hand-carry or cartop access. NH requires boater education for personal watercraft and for operators born after 1 Jan 1988.
Bank & bivvy camping: Camp at New Hampshire state parks (several on Winnipesaukee, Squam and the Connecticut Lakes) and White Mountain National Forest campgrounds along the trout streams.
Tackle: Statewide bass limit is usually 4 (with a closed season in spring on some waters); trout limits vary by water and many streams are catch-and-release or artificial-lures-only; pickerel, perch and horned pout are generous. Check the current NHFG fishing digest for this specific water.
