Free Fishing Days

 The state Department of Environmental Conservation is offering a ‘Free Fishing’ weekend for anglers -- resident and non-residents alike -- on Feb. 13-14.

The two days are the first of six ‘Free Fishing’ opportunities offered by the DEC during 2021. Normally, fishing licenses are required of anglers ages 16 years and older.

During Free Fishing Days/Weekends, anyone can fish the fresh waters of New York State and no fishing license is required. All other fishing regulations, however, still apply.
