Species from NYS DEC DEC public fishing access and fishery survey data.
Night fishing: No general night-fishing closure in New York. Many trout streams and lakes close overnight or run 1 April–15 October only, and some special-regulation waters have their own hours — check the current NYSDEC regulations for this water.
Boats: Most New York fishing rivers are run by tiller boats, jon boats, canoes and kayaks; larger craft only on the lower Mississippi, New York, St. Croix and Rainy.
Bank & bivvy camping: Bank access is at DNR water-access sites, state water-trail campsites, parks and WMAs; other banks are private riparian land.
Tackle: Statewide season and creel limits apply (black bass third Saturday in June–30 November in most of the state, with a catch-and-release lure season outside that). Many trout waters, the Finger Lakes and the Great Lakes tributaries carry special regulations — check the NYSDEC freshwater fishing regulations for this water.
Rules verified 2026-09-02 against NYS DEC regulations. Always confirm the current rules before you fish.
