FRESHWATER FISHING
Licenses, Florida Resident Fees
Licensing requirements follow the species of fish you
are fishing for, regardless of where you are fishing.
For example, anglers fishing for and possessing
largemouth bass in brackish water need a freshwater
license; anglers fishing for saltwater species in fresh
water (e.g., spotted seatrout, red drum, snook, American
shad) need a saltwater license to possess these species
if fishing from a boat.
RESIDENT:
For the purpose of fishing in Florida, a person is a
resident if he or she has lived in Florida for six
continuous months prior to applying for licenses and
claims Florida as his or her primary residence. Active
military personnel stationed in Florida, including their
spouses and dependent children residing in the
household, are considered residents when purchasing
fishing licenses.
