The first week of June is National Fishing and Boating Week.
Saltwater recreational anglers can fish without a license June 2 and freshwater recreational fishers can do so June 9.
Thirty-four states, including Florida and Georgia, will have license-free fishing days June 2-10 National Fishing and Boating Week.
"Florida's license-free fishing days are an excellent opportunity to share the fun, excitement and togetherness of a fishing trip with the entire family. This also is a great time for experienced anglers to introduce friends to the sport, even if they don't have a fishing license," said Nick Wiley, FWC executive director. "By having these events on weekends, we hope Florida residents and visitors will experience the joy of saltwater and freshwater fishing. We expect many will discover a healthy sport they can enjoy for a lifetime."
The FWC also made Sept. 1 a license-free saltwater fishing day during the popular bay scallop and spiny lobster seasons.
