Saltwater fishing license……Why or why not?

[Pete F.]

A lot of shops make some money renting rods to casual fisherman. Some of those become avid fisherman. If you make the entry more expensive you immediately cut the numbers. I think this is thought up by Peta.

I agree with both mike and big fish about multiple states and the money going to places other then fishing.To add a little to this, I have a small boat and a kayak and still fish from shore mostly. Maybe they could take some of the cash and by waterfront property and use it for a park that is acessable for fishing with a boat launch in multiple towns.Were running out of shore spots to fish because of private property.Also maybe hire more D.E.M. officers for enforcment and garbage removel from these fishing areas, then I wouldnt have a problem buying a freshwater and saltwater license.
