Free fishing in Arizona on Saturday, June 3

TUCSON, Ariz. (13 News) - Whether you’re an experienced or new angler, or want to introduce family or friends to this activity, Saturday, June 3, is the perfect day to do it, as the Arizona Game and Fish Department will not require fishing licenses at any state waters or community lakes as part of National Free Fishing Day.

“The goal of National Free Fishing Day is to encourage people to explore the outdoors, and it’s 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,” AZGFD fishing coordinator Chase Newlon said.

Bag limits and other Arizona fishing regulations must be observed on National Free Fishing Day. Children under 10 can fish for free all year in Arizona.
