The word this morning from River End is that the bill is on the Governor's desk for signing. It takes affect on June 15, 2009. Supposedly it is $10 for residents and $15 for non-residents. It sounds like only one license is required if all states recognize each other's lisences.
Pat says that at this point there is no system in place to get the licenses issued. They will overcome the snafu. After this weekend, the government starts to get more from us than the sales taxes on our gear. The part that we haven't dealt with is the reason for the licenses. I think that we will all need to report to some agency on our fishing activities.
Time will tell.

Does anyone think an NMFS tuna permit quaifies in place of a state license? Wasn't there talk of a National system!
