Town Of Durham: 2022 Fishing

Press release from the Town of Durham:

4/1/2022

2022 Fishing:
Use 2021 Fishing Guides
and see information below.

Public Reminder on Current Regulations:

DEEP reminds anglers that all current
freshwater (inland) fishing regulations, including daily creel limits, methods
and size limits remain in effect until new regulations are adopted, likely
sometime in early summer, 2022. All closed seasons also remain in effect,
except for fishing for trout (due to Public Act 21-12’s prohibition on closed
seasons for trout). This means that one can continue to fish for trout at any
waterbodies typically closed to fishing in late winter and early spring but
cannot fish for any other fish species.

DEEP acknowledges the fact
that we are currently in a confusing time as the current regulations and the
recently passed public act are not in sync. The primary intent of these
proposed changes are to comply with PA 21-12, which will simplify the fishing
regulations, allowing anglers to fish for any species in any water year-round
(removal of all closed seasons from the regulations).

The current regulations can
be found on DEEP’s web site at: www.ct.gov/deep/fishing
