If you have a kiddo that loves to fish then you will want to take advantage of Free Fishing Days that takes place around the country! It usually happens around National Fishing and Boating Week each year! This is a great opportunity to be outside and enjoy some family time! Check out all the freebies we have posted!
FREE Fishing Days
If you want to go fishing with the kids this Summer, there is a list of FREE Fishing® Days 2025 where you don’t have to have a license to fish!
Each state has free fishing® days during National Fishing and Boating. You can check here to see the days in your state where you can go fishing without a license on public bodies of water.
Free Fishing® Days 2025 activities vary by state. Fishing is a beloved pastime for many, and many states offer “free fishing® days” where residents and visitors can fish without a license. These days are a great opportunity for people to try out fishing for the first time, or for experienced anglers to introduce a friend or family member to the sport.
Every state participates, and some states could place restrictions and other regulations. Before you go, I would contact your state fish and wildlife agency for specific rules!
