Fish For Free On Labor Day Weekend


September 3 is the last of California’s two 2011 Free Fishing Days

The California Department of Fish and Game offers two free fishing days each year, usually around the two major holidays. This year the Saturday before Labor Day is the second and last free fishing day. Seasoned anglers and novices alike can fish in Californian waters for free, fresh and saltwater, for all species of fish that have an open season on that day. All fishing regulations, such as bag and size limits, gear restrictions, report card requirements, fishing hours and stream closures remain in effect. In addition, some DFG regions offer Fishing in the City programs where anglers can go fishing in major metropolitan areas.

For detailed information on the free fishing day and The Fishing in the City program go to the DFG website.
