Free Fishing Day is June 8

The 2019 Free Fishing Day is Saturday, June 8 when anyone may fish free without a license in Tennessee’s public waters.
The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency provides the annual free day in hopes of increasing interest in fishing. Children ages 15 and younger may fish without a license beginning on Free Fishing Day through the following Friday (June 14).
The day and week are annual events in Tennessee and are great opportunities to introduce children to the enjoyment and excitement of a day on the water catching fish.
Free Fishing Day and Week apply to Tennessee’s public waters, TWRA owned and operated lakes and state park facilities.
