US Customs Regulations

Sportfishermen may bring into the United States only fish for personal consumption. US Customs requires that the fish catch must be accompanied by a California declaration of entry form, obtainable at California Fish and game offices and at the US border ports of entry. (note that different regulations may apply if you live in a state other than California; for information regarding your state's regulations, contact your local department of fish and game or your local US Customs office) the number of fish must not exceed the mexican bag limit. Fish transported across the boarder can be eviscerated but must be identifiable; usually the head, tail, or patch of skin left intact will suffice.

Anyone bringing fish into the United States will be asked by customs officials to present a valid Mexican fishing license or a Mexico Department of Fisheries form covering the purchase of the fish.
