The 'Cornhusker State' is not normally associated with incredible angling action, but with almost 80,000 miles of freshwater streams and two dozen lakes, it punches well above its weight. All the nation's favorite creatures can be found not far from where you're sure to be, so a Nebraska fishing adventure could be just what you need when you pay a visit.
There's something for everyone when fishing in Nebraska, with Panfish such as Sunfish and Crappie offering up the perfect introduction to angling for beginners. Then there's Largemouth Bass, along with its Smallmouth and White cousins. More experienced anglers will relish the chance to go after Walleye and Pike, while Catfish and Trout provide plenty of fun for everybody!
All across the state, you'll find some productive honey holes to explore, with some of the state's lakes offering up the best spots. Lakes Ogalla and Recharge are family-favorites, while Johnson Lake and Lake McConaughey, along with Lewis, Holmes, and Clark Lakes, offer up plenty of action for those of you who know how to handle a rod and reel.
Nebraska fishing guides have plenty of options for you to make the most of the exciting angling opportunities. Shorter, half day trips are suitable for families and beginners, while full day adventures are reserved for the more experienced among you.
Rules & Regulations
Before going fishing in Nebraska, you'll need to get an NE fishing license. Everyone over the age of 16 will need to sign up. However, by going out with a reputable guide, they'll make sure you're fishing within the law when it comes to bag and size limits.
