It’s A Free Fishing Weekend This Weekend in Michigan, And No Rec Pass Needed
Temperatures will be in the mid to upper 80's this weekend, and that makes it a perfect weekend to enjoy the Michigan DNR's Free Fishing Weekend.

Anglers do not need a license to fish in Michigan this weekend. But even though all fishing license fees will be waived during the weekend, all fishing regulations do still apply.
Also this weekend, the regular Recreation Passport fees at the state parks are waived.
With the big turnouts at the Portage Family Fishing Fairs the past two years, this will be a great weekend to put those rods to use.
