Fishing

Florida is considered by many as the Fishing Capital of the World! Florida's freshwater fisheries comprise 3 million acres of lakes, ponds and reservoirs, and approximately 12,000 miles of fishable rivers, streams and canals-with no closed seasons. From mangroves to salt marshes, crab to swimming scallops, Florida is the "Fishing Capital of the World."

Make sure you get your recreational fishing license. Annual recreational fishing licenses are valid for 12 months from the date of purchase or the alternate starting date if selected at the time of purchase, unless otherwise specified on the face of the license.
