Explore Nebraska Game and Parks’ 2025 Fishing Forecast and 2025 Fishing Guides to help plan your next fishing trip — no matter the season.
These two resources are available to download at OutdoorNebraska.gov or print copies can be found at retailers where fishing permits are sold.
Increase your odds of fishing success by reviewing Nebraska fishing regulations and researching locations in our 2025 Fishing Guide, or seeking the best water bodies for top-size sportfish in our 2025 Fishing Forecast.
The Fishing Guide is a summary of regulations and orders and includes a section detailing the state’s public fishing areas. The Fishing Forecast provides a look at where some of the best fishing, and maybe some of the biggest fish, may be found in Nebraska based on 2024 lake sampling.
Find additional planning tools, such as the fish stocking database, lake contour maps, and other fishing publications — or buy your annual fishing permit — at OutdoorNebraska.gov; search for “Fishing guides and reports.”
