CONCORD, N.H. -- N.H. Free Fishing Day is coming on Saturday, June 2, 2012, so plan to get out and cast a line with your family and friends on New Hampshire’s lakes, rivers and streams. On Free Fishing Day, state residents and nonresidents alike can fish any inland water – or saltwater – in New Hampshire without a fishing license All other fishing regulations must be followed on Free Fishing Day, including season dates and bag limits. There is one exception: you still need a fishing license and a special permit to fish for brood stock Atlantic salmon in the Merrimack and lower Pemigewasset rivers.

"Free Fishing Day is the perfect chance to take a buddy fishing – and maybe enjoy a fish fry," says Scott Decker, a N.H. Fish and Game Fisheries Program Supervisor. "New Hampshire has 12,000 miles of rivers and streams and more than 975 lakes and ponds, a number of them stocked with trout, and fishing is a great way to enjoy the outdoor life here."

Free Fishing Day kicks off 2012 National Fishing and Boating Week, a nationwide observance encouraging families to have fun together on the water.
