With more than 7,500 lakes and ponds, 50,000 miles of rivers and streams, and thousands of acres of land and forests, our state offers some of the finest hunting, fishing and trapping resources in the country. As the 2015 fall season quickly approaches, I wanted to provide you with the most up to date information on this year’s season.

This year’s brochure includes general fishing regulations, hunting season dates and additional information that you can use to enhance your outdoor experience in Dutchess and Putnam Counties. I hope that you find this information useful and I encourage you to share it with friends and family.
