LITTLE ROCK, AR (Ben Caxton) — Starting today you won’t need a fishing license or trout stamps to try your luck at your favorite lake, stream or watering hole in Arkansas. Due to the extended school vacation caused the Chinese Coronavirus spreading across the country the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission, in cooperation with Gov. Asa Hutchinson, voted during a specially called meeting this week to waive all fishing license and trout permit requirements for residents and nonresidents starting this weekend and running through 11:59 p.m Sunday, March 29. Daily limits and any length restrictions by species, will remain in place during this time, however.
