Free fishing days in Nevada
NDOW sets them by a recurring rule rather than a fixed date.
On these days you can fish Nevada waters without a license. Nothing else changes: limits, sizes, seasons and closed waters all still apply.

The rule, not a date
Nevada holds a free fishing day each year, on which no licence is needed in public water. All other rules stay in force. The pages read for this entry name no 2026 date, so none is claimed here.
We found no page where NDOW states this year's dates outright, so the rule stands here instead of a date we worked out ourselves. A calculated date that turns out wrong costs someone a fine.
What a free day does not cover
- Bag limits, size limits and closed seasons are unchanged.
- Waters that are closed stay closed.
- A free day waives the license, not the rules the license comes with.
