Due to inclement weather during the free fishing days in June, DGIF is offering two additional full days of free fishing, Sept. 28-29, in conjunction with National Hunting and Fishing Day.
Anyone can fish free in public fresh waters around the state without having to buy a fishing license. Just remember, all fishing regulations still apply. Note that a license is still required to fish in marine areas or saltwater portions of tidal waters.
Events on Saturday, Sept. 28
Henrico County: Dorey Park, 9a-3p
Fairfax County: Burke Lake, 9a-3p
Virginia Beach: Mount Trashmore, 1p-5p
