Don't put your rod away yet...
 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 before you go.
To help you find a fishing destination for your group, we've gathered a list of waters with fall fishing opportunities:
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.

Have you used the Fishing Laws Online Angling Tool (FLOAT)? This map-based display shows which water bodies have special fishing laws, and which are regulated under general law. Click here to open FLOAT.
Remember, you still need to view the general fishing laws in addition to the special fishing laws for the specific water body.
