If your loved one loves the outdoors, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has two great gift ideas for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day or graduation.
For freshwater fishing fans, consider buying a five-year freshwater fishing license. For a limited time, anglers who buy the $61.50 license get a bonus bag of goodies filled with $80 worth of free hooks, lures, fishing line, magazines, t-shirts and other gifts. These promotional packages are distributed on a first come, first served basis. There are around 1,000 of them still available.
You can purchase a fishing license online (MyFWC.com/license), over the phone (1-888-FISH-Florida) or at a local sports retailer. A promotional package will be mailed to the address on the license within 3-4 weeks. Check MyFWC.com/fishing to see if the packages are still available.
