Lakes for your species, near your county
Pick a species and a county. PFBC Best Fishing Waters come first, then lakes where PFBC biologists recorded that species in the last 10 years. We don't rate lakes.
Can I eat it?
Pick a lake and a species to see the DEP/PFBC meal advice from the 2026 list, word for word, with the statewide advice that always applies.
The 2027 Almanac
The 2027 edition is built after PFBC publishes the 2027 trout schedule and Fishing Summary, usually in late winter. We send one email when it's out — nothing else.
