National Fishing And Boating Week Includes
Two Free Fishing Days - Begins June 4
Special to the Ledger
National Fishing and
Boating Week (NFBW),
which includes two free
fishing days, provides an
excellent reason to get
outside and take advan
tage of the amazing nat
ural resources available
in Georgia. Celebrate
NFBW from June 4-12,
2022, according to the
Georgia Department of
Natural Resources’ Wild
life Resources Division
(WRD).
“I don’t know many
people that would say
‘no’ when asked to go
boating and fishing be
cause they are both such
great activities, and they
even offer tremendous
bonus benefits,” said
Scott Robinson, Chief of
the WRD Fisheries Man
agement Section. “Boat
ing and fishing provide
benefits like connecting
with family and friends,
providing an opportu
nity for stress relief,
and actively supporting
conservation efforts with
the purchase of a fishing
license, equipment and
boating fuel.”
National Fishing and
Boating Week began in
1979 and was created to
recognize the tradition
of fishing, to broaden
the spirit of togetherness
and to share the values
and knowledge of today’s
anglers with tomorrow’s
anglers.
Flow to Celebrate:
FREE FISHING DAYS:
In the spirit of introduc
ing new family members
or friends to the sport of
angling, Georgia offers
two FREE fishing days -
Sat., June 4 and Sat., June
11, 2022 - during this
special week. On these
days, Georgia residents
do not need a fishing
license, trout license or
Lands Pass (WMAs/
PFAs) to fish.
Where to Celebrate:
There are so many great
places to fish in Georgia,
from trout streams in
North Georgia, to large
reservoirs, to lazy rivers
in the south part of the
state. You can always
start at one of the 11
Public Fishing Areas
(https://georgiawildlife.
com/allpfas) or at one
of many Georgia State
Parks (https://gastate-
parks.org/) that offer
fishing opportunities for
family and friends. There
also will be multiple Kids
Fishing Events on these
days (https://license.
gooutdoorsgeorgia.com/
Event/C alendar. aspx).
Can’t Get Outdoors?
You can still celebrate
indoors. Let the kids go
to the Angler Academy.
At this website, devel
oped by TakeMeFishing.
org, you will find links
to “fishy” crafts, games,
informative videos and
puzzles. Check it out at
takemefishing.org/how-
to-fish/fishing-resources/
angler-academy-for-kids/.
“In the spirit of Nation
al Fishing and Boating
Week, be sure to make it
a mission to take some
one new when you go,
such as a child, a relative
or a friend. You could be
the person that inspires
another person’s life-long
love of the water,” says
Robinson.
