Saturday, June 7th, 2008, is Free Fishing Day In Tennessee and anyone (resident or nonresident) of any age may fish free without a license in Tennessee’s public waters, according to 2008 Tennessee Fishing Guide, page 11. Even better, if you are 15 years old or younger, you may fish free the entire week, beginning on Free Fishing Day, June 7, and running through the following Friday, June 13. This day and week are annual events in Tennessee and are great opportunities to introduce children to the joys and excitement of a day on the water catching fish! Not only is fishing a great family activity, it helps make us more aware of our natural environment.
Free Fishing Day and Week apply to Tennessee’s public waters, Agency
owned and operated lakes, and state park facilities. Some privately owned
pay lakes continue to charge during this special day and week. Please
consult with lake operators, if you have any questions about the status of
a particular facility.
