New to fishing? Free Fishing Days are the perfect chance to give it a tryโno license needed! On these two days, families can fish at lakes, rivers, or city parks without the usual sport fishing license.
Itโs a great way to experience the excitement of fishing for the first time, with opportunities to learn about fish habits, tackle, ethics, and how to clean your catch. Some regions even offer special clinics and city programs for beginners.
- No license required to fish
- Open to all ages and skill levels
- Clinics available in select regions
- All standard fishing regulations still apply
Note: A report card is still required when fishing for steelhead, sturgeon, or salmon in specific river systems.
