The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) encourages all Californians to give fishing a try for free on Sept. 2. CDFW annually offers two Free Fishing Days, typically around the Fourth of July and Labor Day weekends. On these two days, people can fish without having to buy a sport fishing license. Free Fishing Days also provide an easy opportunity for licensed anglers to introduce non-angling friends and children to fishing and the outdoors. All anglers should also check the rules and regulations at www.wildlife.ca.gov/regulations for the waters they plan to fish because wildlife officers will be on duty to enforce them. In addition, information on fish planting is available at https://nrm.dfg.ca.gov/ fishplants and a fishing guide can be viewed at www.wildlife.ca.gov/ fishing/guide. For more information on Free Fishing Days, visit www. wildlife.ca.gov/licensing/ fishing/free-fishing-days.
