Fish and fishing are always on my brain. Songs remind me it is time to go to the river, time to catch and release fish there. On my way!
Fishing
Summerkill
There have been some reports of fish die-offs in the past few weeks. In some Nebraska waters summer conditions can result in low oxygen.
Southwest Reservoirs Access
Summer rains have had a negative impact on roads on southwest reservoir wildlife areas. Fishing access may be impacted.
State Record Update, First Half 2025
Nebraska state record fish update for the first half of 2025. Two new rod and reel records have been certified, saugeye and redear sunfish.
Bluegreen Algae
The heat of mid-summer is the time bluegreen algae blooms are likely on Nebraska waters. Know what those blooms are and what you should do.
Water is Hot, Clock is Ticking
At least some of the fish you catch will be released. Proper fish handling is critical especially during the heat of summer.
