Just went up to 12 here in Alabama. Up from 9.50 I think. The lifetime freshwater also went up from 150 to 250.

In the few lakes they put trout in that have bass (Breakheart, Stafford, Watchaug)for example. These lakes are the better lakes in the state imo. They usually throw out quality fish and I have caught 3 pound largies with 10 inch brook trout tails sticking out of there gut. So they do it them.

But back to the trout and Rhode Island. Its funny it seems like everyone in the state fishes for trout from the second saturday in April (opening day) to the third saturday, then you never see anyone fishing anymore. I just cant figure this state out. Cant wait to get out of college and move to the shores of G-Ville

Here in Indiana it is $17 not to long ago it was $4.  It's robbery.  They take in 3 to 4 times as much money but yet complain that they have no money for things that were taken care of every year with less.  I know things cost more but come on.  I want to know were the money is being spent.

Same here. Its going somewhere, but it seems like it isnt going where it should be   >

Mississippi resident license for freshwater is $9.85 , there's an additional charge for saltwater fishing not sure what it is. I dont do any salt water fishing.

Rhodey is like twenty something. Its sad because they stock nothing but trout, and put no money in for bass or anything. Just trout!

Well, they charge for a whole year when you can only fish six months!    :

1/2/2007 70 degrees 20+ fish   The only month we dont fish is Febuary and thats when we fly south for a few weeks  

Got to say Connecticut is tough, most states give minors 16-18 a break but CT is Adult =16 and over.  16 year old out of Stater's  $40.00

"Take a kid fishing and your VISA Platnuim card in CT"

NH is the same way. 16 and over you need a fishing lic, 16 and under its free. Im afraid most of the $$$ raised via license fees are not going to stocking waters and other Fish and Game resources but to offset the raising costs for the Fish and Games employees such as Healthcare and Retirement.

Geez a lot of you guys got it good. Costs me $45 for my California license after buying the bay stamp. Of course there's a ton of other stamps you have to buy for various other things. Another $60 for non-resident Oregon license, and another $20 for a harvest card to keep salmon/steelhead/halibut/sturgeon.  

Where else do you have to have your license visible besides California? Charge you another $5 for the holder, and it's easy to forget when you can't just leave it in your wallet.

Like Branuss had already said, our license here in Cali are $37.50... However, we also have a two rod stamp (which, depending on the type of fishing I'm doing, I sometimes use) and its $11.55, and a Bay Delta stamp which is $5.50 more....

So, all total, its more like $55

Peace,

Fish

Gotta have the two rod stamp.  I use it more for trolling for trout, macs, etc.  Very seldom for bass.

Yeah I have the two rod stamp as well for trout. No I didn't pay for a holder, I just made my own.

As mentioned earlier a Virginia license is $18 for 12 months from the date of purchase.  I have also purchased a 7 day Florida and 7 day Missouri license this year as well so I think I am up to $60.  I need to start thinking about buying a lifetime license for $255.

NC Freshwater $15

NC Saltwater $15

Unified salt and freshwater $35

I am not sure if the unfied license includes Trout Stamps as I live on the coast and have never been Trout fishing in the mountains.

$10.00 Freshwater resident

$6.00 Saltwater resident

Total $ 16.00 to fish from side-to-side and top-to-bottom of MS.

FREE

In Florida you don't have to be "OLD" to fish for free,

but you do need proof that you've had 65 birthdays.

Roger

PA = I think it was around $23 this year. Extra fees to fish for Trout and they put a trout stamp on your license

a regular license is 21 but with the dollar tax its 22 and with the trout stamp its 31 cause they are 9 with the dollar tax.

We gota have our licenses visible but we can buy the holders for like 89 cents. dang ain't no wonder the Terminators rich ;D >
