Free Fishing Day

Arizona’s Free Fishing Day is tomorrow. On Free Fishing Day, you don’t have to have a license to fish with your friends & family in Arizona, & clinics are even set up across the state for those wanting to learn how to fish or to refine their angling skills. Arizona’s Free Fishing Day is part of National Fishing & Boating Week June 3rd-11th, when hundreds of communities across the country host fishing & boating events to give families the opportunity to participate in these great outdoor pastimes. During Arizona’s Free Fishing Day, you do not need a fishing license to fish any of Arizona’s public waters, including lakes, urban lakes, river, & stream. Special fishing clinics & associated activities are set up across Arizona. For a list of the activities, visit the sport-fishing section of the department's Web site. For events nationally, visit the Take Me Fishing Web site.
