    Default Saltwater Licenses

    According to this article it may happen soon.

    If it does nothing else it will show lawmakers the large voting block receational fisherman make up.

    I have mixed feelings about this. I guess if the money collected went to conservation of the Saltwater fisheries then I could support it, but I don't believe it will, and if it does at inception it won't be long before it is changed. Therefore I basically oppose it at this time.

    I disagree with licensing provisions as they are currently administered. They disenfranchise those that are disadvantaged. I have to pay over $200.00 a year to hunt and fish in Ga. by way of licenses, permits and WMA stickers. If I was not as lucky as I am. I could not do these activities legally, and that is wrong! There should be one license, and people who hunt or fish in thier county of residence with primitive equipment should be exempt, just like it used to be in my home state of Texas!
