"The 2026-2027 NM fishing booklet, minus the PDF. Search limits, waters & rules fast enough to use at the boat ramp."
Know the rules before you wet a line. NM Fishing Rules & Info puts the entire 2026-2027 New Mexico fishing regulations booklet in your pocket — searchable, organized, and built for anglers who'd rather be fishing than flipping through a PDF.
Whether you're chasing trout in a high-country stream, working a warm-water lake for bass, or teaching a kid to fish for the first time, this app gets you to the answer fast: what you can keep, where you can go, and what the game warden expects you to already know.
WHAT'S INSIDE
Species Guide — limits, seasons, and identification for trout, kokanee salmon, bass, catfish, walleye, muskie, pike, and more.
Specific Waters A-Z — special rules for 128+ named lakes, rivers, and ponds across the state, from Alto Lake to Bear Canyon Lake.
Cold Water & Warm Water Regulations — know exactly what applies to the water you're standing on.
Special Trout Waters — rules for catch-and-release, artificial-lures-only, and other restricted trout fisheries.
Age-Restricted Waters — ponds and waters set aside for kids and youth anglers.
Licenses & Fees — what you need before you cast.
Boating Regulations — motor restrictions, permits, and safety rules for waters that allow boats.
Invasive Species & Fish Consumption — advisories to keep you and New Mexico's waters safe.
Fishing Maps & Hatcheries — find stocked waters and hatchery locations.
Family & Education, Challenges, and Volunteer programs.
Glossary — plain-English definitions for regulation jargon.
Contacts & Offices — direct numbers for NMDOW headquarters and every regional office, plus the Operation Game Thief poaching hotline and the Bear and Cougar Zone Closure line.
BUILT FOR HOW ANGLERS ACTUALLY LOOK THINGS UP
No more scrolling a 60-page PDF on your phone at the boat ramp. Everything is broken into short, searchable sections so you can pull up a specific water, a specific species, or a specific rule in seconds — even with one bar of signal.
Covers the full 2026-2027 license year: April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2027.
A NOTE ON ACCURACY
NM Fishing Rules & Info is an independent, unofficial reference built from the published New Mexico Department of Wildlife fishing rules. It is not the official NMDOW booklet and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the State of New Mexico. Regulations can change during the season — always verify current rules at wildlife.dgf.nm.gov before you head out, and treat this app as a fast reference, not a legal document.
Tight lines, and fish within your limits.
