Fishing in Wyoming is already hot

Temperatures are rising, the ice is retreating, and the fishing are biting. Get an early start on your fishing this year and head out to Flaming Gorge and Gray Reef where the fishing is heating up with the spring. Find out what our fisheries managers recommend when fishing these waters>

Fishing access-What is trespassing?

Wyoming boasts hundreds of top-notch fishing spots and many of these are open to the public. But, there are plenty of rivers, streams, ponds to fish that are on private land. Here is a rundown on what you need to know when you're out negotiating access between public and private land>

Ask Game and Fish

Matt, how does Game and Fish manage for walleye?

Walleye are an important and popular sport fish in Wyoming. If you haven’t gone out walleye fishing, you should, they are tasty and we have populations of walleye in many of the mid-sized to large reservoirs east of the Continental Divide>

Boaters who get AIS inspections are eligible for prizes

Boaters who have their watercraft inspected for aquatic invasive species (AIS) will be eligible to win prizes through the 2017 Wyoming AIS Boater Appreciation Raffle. The raffle was established to recognize the important role boaters play in maintaining the ecological and recreational qualities of Wyoming waters through boat inspections>
