Free Fishing Weekend

Location Statewide

In an effort to promote the sport of fishing in Indiana, residents do not need a fishing license or a trout/salmon stamp to fish the state's public waters on Free Fishing Days (June 1 - 2, 2019)

On all other days, only youth (age 17 and younger) and a few other special anglers are exempt from the license requirement. 

So get out and enjoy your favorite fishing spot this weekend!!
