The Georgia 3-day fishing license cost is $7 for residents or $17 for visitors before transaction fees. Build a three-day block by buying one day and adding two consecutive days. The price changes if your trip needs a paid mountain trout privilege.
Georgia 3-Day Fishing License Cost by Water
| Trip type | Resident | Nonresident |
|---|---|---|
| Basic freshwater | $7 | $17 |
| Saltwater with required free SIP | $7 plus free permit | $17 plus free permit |
| Mountain trout with paid short-term trout privilege | $14 | $31 |
The mountain trout examples add a $7 resident privilege or a $14 nonresident privilege for the same three dates. The Georgia recreational fishing fee table gives the first-day and additional-day trout rates. See the Georgia coastal permit guide for the free SIP.
Choose the Dates for a Weekend Trip
- Decide whether you will fish Friday, Saturday and Sunday or only two of those days. A two-day block costs $6 for residents or $13.50 for visitors at the basic rates.
- In Go Outdoors Georgia, select the first date and two consecutive additional days for a three-day trip. Check the exact dates on the license.
- Compare the final checkout price and the current rules for the water before fishing.
What the Three-Day Total Excludes
The figures are base prices from the DNR license guide and fishing fee table. The DNR lists a $3 online transaction fee. Boat rentals, park entry or guide charges depend on your destination.
See the Georgia multi-day fishing guide for trips longer than one weekend or the one-day purchase guide for a single outing.
