PORT CANAVERAL, Florida Governor Scott and the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation
Commission (FWC) announced that Saturday, September 6, 2014, visitors and
residents are invited to participate in a saltwater license-free fishing
day. On this day, the requirement to have a recreational saltwater
fishing license is waived. All other regulations such as seasons, size
limits and bag limits still apply on these license free days.
“The license-free fishing day is a great
opportunity for families to enjoy the incredible saltwater fishing
opportunities that Florida has to offer," Governor Scott said. " Florida is the fishing capital
of the world and a license-free day is the perfect opportunity to try
fishing for the first time. I hope Florida’s families use this Saturday
to enjoy our waters and great weather while catching some fish.”
