I am all for this license, I am hoping it makes folks who keep anything that bites reconsider their actions. Perhaps the money generated by such a license will fund more jobs to enforce said regulations.

Careful what ya wish for...
All ya have to do is look at the way any state does business.
Moneys appropriated will never make to the right hands.
They will go to the starved general fund.They may show all the money going to fisheries management but simply put less money will be appropriated by the particular state to conservation.The money for the C.O.'s and such will stay the same.And things will get no better.In a nutshell, it's just the states way of generating more income.
I would not be surprised if certain separate fee's will be born from this license program.For instance, in NJ we have to purchase a trout stamp to target trout.
We might have to purchase a SB stamp, a fluke stamp.....
There's already a special permit for tuna...
In essence, to a fair man a license program seems reasonable.We are not dealing with fair people here..

FORE!
It's usually darkest just before it turns Black..
