Labor Day Offers Special Fishing Opportunities
To introduce both children and adults to fishing, the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission (PFBC) is offering two special opportunities on Labor Day, Sept. 5. The first is a $1 license for adult residents and non-residents for Labor Day only. The second opportunity is the Mentored Youth Pinfish Day, which provides youth anglers who obtained a free Mentored Youth Permit or purchased a Mentored Youth Voluntary License during the spring an extra opportunity to fish on 19 lakes, including Cross Creek Lake and Peters Township Lake (Reservoir No. 2). To participate in the mentored youth program, adult anglers (16 years or older) must have a valid Pennsylvania fishing license and be accompanied by a youth. Youth anglers can obtain their free PFBC-issued permit or purchase a voluntary youth fishing license at GoneFishingPA.com.
