Michigan is throwing open its lakes, rivers and streams to free fishing for one weekend next month.
The Department of Natural Resources is holding its annual free fishing weekend on June 9th and 10th. Residents and nonresidents of the state will be able to fish without a license, although other fishing regulations will apply.
DNR officials say that Michigan's 3,000 miles of Great Lakes shoreline, 36,000 miles of rivers and 11,000 inland lakes make it a natural place for anglers. Director Rodney Stokes says the state has "some of the finest freshwater fishing in the world."
The state has offered the free fishing weekend annually since 1986.
More information on activities and events is available online at www.Michigan.gov /FreeFishing.
