Saturday, June 9, is Free Fishing Day in Idaho,
and the Idaho Department of Fish and Game
invites veteran and novice anglers of all ages,
residents and nonresidents alike, to celebrate
the day by fishing anywhere in Idaho without a
license.
Though fishing license requirements are
suspended for this special day, all other rules,
such as limits or tackle restrictions, remain in
effect.
Free fishing day provides an opportunity for
novices to give fishing a try and perhaps
develop it into a life-long pursuit, Fish and
Game officials say. Lack of fishing experience
is no excuse.
At special locations around the state, equipment
will be available for use, and fishing experts
will be on hand to help novice anglers learn the
ins and outs of fishing.
Once again, the Bonners Ferry Lion's Club will
open the Lions Den pond to give children the
chance to land a lunker.
Look for the nearest event and "Take a Kid
Fishing." For more information about regional
events contact local Fish and Game offices. |
