Fishing in Alabama requires a valid state fishing license for anglers. Licenses are available for residents and non-residents, with options for daily, annual, or multi-year permits, purchasable online or from authorized retailers.

In Alabama, no fishing license is required for anglers under 16 or residents 65 and older. A few other exceptions worth knowing:

Non-residents usually pay more for a license than residents. Some species also require an extra stamp or endorsement on top of your base license.
