Free Fishing Days for 2018
Saturday, July 7 and Saturday, September 1
Have you ever felt the excitement of watching your bobber suddenly jiggle, then dive out of sight? Or feeling the tap-tap-tap of a bass as it tastes the worm on the end of your line? Or having a salmon practically tear the rod out of your hands as it smashes your lure? What's that?
You say you never learned to fish?
Cannot get out to fish enough, so decided on no license or fishing this year?
All fishing regulations, such as bag and size limits, gear restrictions, report card requirements, fishing hours and stream closures remain in effect.
On Free Fishing Days, every angler must have the appropriate report card if they are fishing for:
- abalonesteelhead
- sturgeon
- or salmon in the Smith and Klamath-Trinity River Systems.
