Fall is here, and lucky for anglers, there are still hundreds of lakes, rivers, streams, and ponds open for fishing. During the fall months there are special regulations in place as some species are spawning, so be sure to consult the 2022 Open Water and Ice Fishing Laws [ [link removed] ] before you go.

To help you find a fishing destination for your group, we've gathered a list of waters with fall fishing opportunities:

*North Zone Lakes & Ponds with Fall Fishing Opportunities (PDF)* [ [link removed] ]


*North Zone Rivers & Streams with Fall Fishing Opportunities (PDF)* [ [link removed] ]


*South Zone Rivers & Streams with Fall Fishing Opportunities (PDF)* [ [link removed] ]


By General Law, _South Zone Lakes and Ponds_ are open to year round fishing, unless listed as closed with a special regulation. If you wish to fish a lake or pond in the South Zone, check the lawbook to make sure it is not closed.
