Pecos, NM:  Beginning August 14th, 2018, Pecos National Historical Park will offer fall fishing permits for the Pecos River within the park boundaries. The 2018 fall fishing season will begin September 13th and end November 5th.
 
For the 2018 fall fishing season, Pecos National Historical Park will be using 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 still 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.
