The Indiana Department of Natural Resources has announced Free Fishing Days for 2026.
On select days each year, Indiana residents can fish the state’s public waters without a fishing license or a trout/salmon stamp.
The “Free Fishing Days,” are excellent opportunities to learn to fish on your own, with family or friends, or simply try something new.
This year’s Free Fishing Days will be on May 10th, June 6th and 7th, and September 26th.
For anglers who fish year-round, remember that annual licenses and stamp privileges from last season expired on March 31st.
You can purchase your 2026 license online, in person, or by mail.
Check out the DNR’s License Fees webpage for more information on license expiration dates and fees.
