License Free Fishing Days for saltwater and freshwater have arrived just in time for Father’s Day! We actually have 4 days in June to fish without a license – 2 days for saltwater and 2 days for freshwater. This Saturday and Sunday (June 7th & 8th), the License Free Fishing Day for saltwater in Florida. License Free Fishing Day for freshwater happens to fall on Father’s Day weekend, Saturday and Sunday (June 14th & 15th). If you have a dad who likes fishing, this would be a great present if you don’t have a fishing license.
Last year I posted a full list of License Free Fishing Days for all 50 states! It looks like there are a number of states that offer FREE fishing in June, so be sure to follow the links to find information on your state.
Info from the FWC website:
Free fishing days provide an excellent opportunity for parents who don’t yet have licenses to take youth fishing, or avid anglers to introduce a friend to fishing without having to purchase a license. On these days, the fishing license requirement is waived for all recreational anglers (residents and non-residents).
All other rules (e.g., seasons, bag and size limits) apply.
The saltwater waiver applies to any recreational harvest requiring a saltwater fishing license (e.g., crabbing, lobstering, scalloping, etc.) as well as fishing from shore or a boat.
