You can but there will be fines of the game warden comes up. Much better to get license, you can do it online at myfwc.com
Best to get one if under 16.
In the state of Florida, you have to have a fishing license if you're over the age of 16. 65+ doesn't have to have a license. I have heard if you're in the county you reside in and you are bank fishing with a cane pole you're in the clear. Just look up the laws. Licenses are $17 you can buy them at Walmart.
No...
I do know you gotta have a license to fish in Florida, regardless.
