Here is the list for free fishing days in 2009 per state. Great opportunity to take someone you know fishing and introduce them to the sport.

2009 FREE FISHING DAYS NATIONWIDE

Free Fishing Day 2009 Free fishing days nationwide. Enjoy free fishing without having to purchase a license. Many states use the first weekend in June. Also, look into National Hunting and Fishing Day in late September. Be sure to check your specific state's regulations for details and further information.

Some states still require special stamps to fish for trout, salmon, etc. on free fishing days or restrict free fishing to freshwater/saltwater. Other states allow free fishing year-round to disabled veterans, senior citizens, children, etc.
