Bring the family to your local fishing hole Saturday, the first of four Indiana free fishing days this year.
On free fishing days, Hoosiers can fish public waters without a fishing license or a salmon/trout stamp. Free fishing days are a great opportunity for families to learn to fish together because adults do not need a fishing license on those days. Children 17 and younger do not need a license on any day.
On Saturday, a family learn to fish workshop will take place from 9 a.m. to noon at Muscatatuck National Wildlife Refuge in Seymour. Advance registration is required by calling 812-522-4352, ext. 12, or emailing [email protected]. Find information at bit.ly/2Z5DTMw.
State parks also are hosting free fishing day events. You can find a list of state park events at bit.ly/2GaZGcX.
