Join the fun June 6-7, 2009
Maybe you've never fished before, and you're not sure if it's right for you. Or perhaps you fished when you were a kid but never have time any more. You just want one day when you can take the family out to the lake and enjoy nature together. Free Fishing Days are your chance to sample the action without having to invest in a fishing permit.

Talk About Outdoor Recreation
Whether your idea of outdoor fun is birding, hunting or fishing, you'll find timely tips and talk about it here. Send your comments and follow related links.
Anglers can wet their lines in state waters without having to buy fishing permits, daily trout tags or trout permits at most locations. Requirements for special permits still may apply at some county, city or private areas. Normal regulations, such as size and daily limits, still apply, too. Borrow a neighbor's rod and reel, or come out to a Conservation Area where a Free Fishing Days program is scheduled, and borrow ours.
