Pontoon Boat & Deck Boat Forum

Bought my lifetime hunting and fishing license back in 1995 and it has paid for itself many times over through the years!!

$5 to catch crabs? Not bad, I once paid $50 in Mexico.

In Sweden there is no boat registration, well, there is, but it is volunteerly.
Fishing on the coast or the 3 largest lakes of Sweden is free and require no license but one is not allowed to use a net.
Fishing in smaller lakes require a license and it is bought for that particular lake. You can buy 1 day license, week license or annual license. There are no restrictions about amount of lines or anything else except using a net.

Cook Islands you only need a license if you are making your living of fishing.

In Maryland a Senior's license is $5.00 for salt and fresh combined. Crabbing license is $2.00 for a Senior. I feel there should be no charge at all. If people went around collecting horse turds they would slap a license fee on that!

Yeah but us MD residents are being taxed on rain now. Seriously.

on the CA lic, I add the Ocean Enhancement and the Colorado River Stamp, brings it close to $90

Plus lake fees,

crazy

The Ocean Enhancement fee is so high in Colorado, that they quit selling it.

But the Colorado River part is included.
