Pecos, NM:  Pecos National Historical Park will offer fall fishing permits for the Pecos River within the park boundaries.  The 2021 fall fishing season begins September 9th and ends November 15th.  

 

Pecos National Historical Park uses an online reservation system. Reservations can be made up to 30 days in advance via www.recreation.gov or by calling 1-877-444-6777. A $15 per day fee must be paid online during the online reservation process. Please note that anglers are required to check in and acquire a special use permit at the park visitor center prior to fishing. For more information related to fishing, visit the park website https://www.nps.gov/peco/planyourvisit/fishing.htm.  

 

Within the park, three miles of the Pecos River are divided into three sections or "beats." This approach offers anglers roughly one mile on the Pecos River to fish with up to two other people for the day. Three beats (for up to nine anglers per day) are available on the reservation system.  

 

For more information about the park in general, contact Pecos NHP at (505) 757-7241 or visit our website at www.nps.gov/peco. You will also find our listings on New Mexico True and Tourism Santa Fe. Please like on us on Facebook or Instagram.

 

From I-25: Due to current road construction, take the Rowe Exit, #307. Follow signs. From Highway 63, the park will be on your left.
