Lagooner Fishing Guides post the Saltwater Fishing License Information as a courtesy for our anglers and for general information purposes. The regulation and license information change on a regular basis and should be checked against the Florida Wildlife Commission's website for accuracy.
Although you will not need this license
if you are fishing with a Lagooner fishing guide, we provide
you with the information to acquire one incase you get the
sudden urge to go fishing on your own accord.
