Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) reminds anglers the 2024-25 fishing season is officially here.
The 2024-25 fishing license is valid from March 1, 2024, through March 31, 2025. Regulations and pricing for annual, daily, and multi-day fishing licenses are in the 2024 Colorado Fishing Brochure (Pesca en Colorado (En Español). For individuals ages 18 through 64, a $12.15 Habitat Stamp is required with the first license purchase for the year. Youth under age 16 can fish with one rod for free, and CPW provides opportunities throughout the season to learn how to fish.
Coloradans and non-resident visitors can purchase fishing licenses online, by phone at 1-800-244-5613, at a local CPW office, or from authorized sales agents statewide. CPW does not receive general tax dollars, and fishing license sales support all statewide hatchery and fish-stocking operations.
When planning a fishing trip, download the My CPW app. My CPW is the official mobile app for CPW’s license and pass purchasing website CPWshop.com and includes access to a list of active products on your CPWShop.com account, CPWShop mobile purchases, links to fishing reports, PDFs of the most recent brochures, and more.
Resident anglers will purchase fishing licenses the same way as in the past and receive a printed physical license, but now have the option to display it within the myColorado mobile app. Check out the myColorado FAQ document for more information about accessing your resident fishing license within the app Wallet.
