Deer Lake Fishing Regulations

Rule-making status: Permanent

Rule Making Reference# P2023-19

This rule proposal began as a petition to the Commission and was approved by the Commission at their December 14-16, 2023 meeting. The rule proposal is intended to increase angler opportunity on Deer Lake in Stevens County. By increasing the recreational season length on Deer Lake for trout, this may eliminate a trophy fishery for the same trout.
