Friday is free freshwater fishing finale for 2013

You can go freshwater fishing without a license on Saturday.

December 28th is the last freshwater license-free fishing day for 2013.

License free fishing days are an invitation for people to try out fishing in the hopes they’ll begin doing it more regularly.

Even though you won’t need a license for freshwater fishing on Saturday all other bag limit, season and size restrictions apply. 

Beginning in 2014, there will be eight license-free fishing days that will fall on the same weekend days from year to year.

This will allow anglers to plan fishing trips in advance and businesses and nonprofit groups to create events around these fishing license holidays.

According to the American Sportfishing Association, Florida had 1.2 million non-resident anglers visit the Sunshine State in 2011, the next highest state was Michigan with just over 347 thousand visiting anglers.
