Upcoming Fishing Season Closures
The last day of the possession season for black bass (largemouth and smallmouth) and muskellunge is November 30. For many counties the Catch & Release black bass season (using artificial lures only) will begin on December 1. However, fishing for black bass (including catch and release) is prohibited outside of the open season (June 15 - November 30) in Jefferson, St. Lawrence, Franklin and Hamilton counties.
Statewide seasons for popular sportfish such as walleye, crappie, trout, salmon and northern pike remain open in most areas of the state, so there are still plenty of fishing opportunities this time of year. Before venturing out, be sure to check the most current statewide and special fishing regulations available on the DEC website.
