It’s crucial to abide by fishing regulations, as this protects the diverse fish species in our waters.

How to Obtain Your Fishing License

Choose Your License Type:

New York offers several types of fishing licenses, including annual, 7-day, and lifetime options. Depending on how often you plan to fish, select the license that best suits your needs. If you're visiting for a short trip, a 7-day license might be the most convenient choice.
