Can you hunt and fish in florida for free if you are over 65?

What does a senior license certificate cover and where do I get it? A resident permanent senior license for those 65 years old and older, authorizes the holder to take or attempt to take or possess freshwater fish and game consistent with state and federal regulations and the rules of the Commission at the time of taking. The holder of this license may engage in all activities authorized by a management area permit, a muzzle-loading gun permit, a turkey permit, an archery permit, and a Florida waterfowl permit. Although these certificates are available, all a senior needs is proof of age and residency to fish for free. Many seniors, however, choose to buy a resident license in order to contribute to conservation. This is one of the simplest ways to help ensure the future of fishing in Florida and is encouraged by the agency. (See Heritage ad.)

These licenses should be issued by the Tax Collector's offices only.

I used senior licsense Florida fishing but anything close in any order would have worked. Google is like having a really really good encyclopedia so you can look up almost anything. If you can't find it on Google just ask here and you'll probably get several answers, often in conflict.
