Outdoors

The free fishing days have been announced for 2021 in all 50 states and DC! On these specific days, unique to each state, you are allowed to fish without a fishing license. Most of the 2021 dates seem to fall around early June, but there are plenty of May, July, and August dates on there as well.

While the Take Me Fishing website helpfully provides the dates, they don't have any corresponding links to back them up. So I went out and found them all! Below are all 50 states free fishing dates along with links for proof!

On a related note, I learned about the existence of fishing licenses the hard way. I was grateful the game warden took pity on me when he saw I not only failed catching a single fish, but was also tangled in the fishing line when he pulled up.

Saved by my own ineptitude!

State's Free Fishing Days 2021

Have fun out there, folks!

We can signup here to get a free Proven Winners gardener's idea book sent to our homes. I feel like a fraud requesting this freebie since I don't have much of a green thumb. I swear the last time I went to buy a plant, a few of them verbally shouted “nooooo, don't let him pick us!” while inching their pots deeper into the shelf.

However, if you're not a plant serial-killer like me, then this freebie will contain tips & ideas on great way to get ready to garden this spring.

These booklets are set to ship in late March 2021. Please allow 4-6 weeks for delivery.

This cool offer from NASA has returned!

You can now sign up to have your name sent to Mars on the next robotic rover. According to their FAQs, our names will fly on a future NASA mission to Mars in the mid-2020's.

Some Hiffers sent our names on the 2017 InSight rover and/or the Mars 2020 rover. According to my Galactic Law Degree, that means we already have squatters rights on Mars. I call dibs on that hill over there!

While this is cool and all, I hope to be making posts for free trips to Mars before all is said and done.

If you have any pond plants, such as waterlilies, then sign up for a sample of free AgSafe Pond-Pearls plant food. This freebie contains 2 tablespoons of feed good for two 1-2 gallon size pots of pond plants. This freebie releases nitrogen for lush plant growth followed by steady release of phosphate and potassium for strong blooming.

Man, I could go for some lush nitrogen right about now.

This is one of those smaller freebies that won't come if we all request it. But I figured not many Hiffers have waterlilies in their home, so it might be worthwhile for those who do!

The sites says to allow 5-7 days for shipping via USPS. Thanks to Louis DeJoy's shenanigans, let's bump that expected arrival up to 15-17 days.

If you have a nearby Phantom Fireworks Showroom and plan on celebrating our nation's birthday by blowing stuff up, then be sure to check out one of the oldest freebies still alive. All you have to do is use this coupon good for 6 free 14″ Gold Sparklers and light up the night during your 4th of July celebrations.

Phantom has showroom locations in the following states: FL, GA, IN, KY, ME, MI, MO, NH, NM, NV, OH, PA, SC, WI, and WY
