Kansas is offering a free fishing this weekend, June 6-7.
This gives you the opportunity to try out fishing or involve someone new without having to purchase a license. Free fishing in Kansas is typically offered on the first full weekend of June.
Weather over the weekend will be hot, with heat indices in the 100’s. Water and sunscreen will be a must if you plan on going out. With the hotter weather, fishing may be better during the morning and evening hours, which will help keep you from being out during the hottest part of the day.
Sedgwick County is part of the state’s Urban Fishing Program. This means several bodies of water in the Wichita area are stocked with fish throughout the year.
In Kansas, fishing licenses are typically required for everyone age 16-74 while fishing in public waters, and even in some private waters.
