Duplicates never were free?



My fishing license last year and my Special Use Permit A/B was on on this paper and ive yet to have any issues. I keep my stuff in my wallet and my wallet in a drybag while fishing. I tend to try not to get my wallet wet so it works to keep the license dry too.


I just cant believe that this years license was over 50.00 and I dont even buy a 2nd rod stamp....

I think it was $9 dollars to get a duplicate in the past... but I'm often wrong.

Kayakers sure do find stupid things to complain about...

Did anyone ever see that south park episode about the Prius...?

Ok, my mistake, the paper is waterproof according to F&G, but it appears that the ink they use is not, or and/or ink in general doesn't adhere to the paper well and is subject to smearing and/or smearing off when wet, thus the need to keep them dry; good luck with those report cards boys, and girls.

There is water proof and water proof...

Actually its when the paper gets wet it then sticks together, so then when you try to unfold it it lifts the surface and text off part of the paper where it is stuck together. With me I just pulled the folded up license out of my wallet and handed to the warden, when he unfolded it part of the text was missing.

If you look at the original you can see a mirror image of the part that lifted in middle stuck to the bottom of the license.




I'm not sure when it got wet or if it just got damp from leaky waders or sweat but all I know is it got screwed up and as a result I almost got a ticket, and I don't want it to happen again.

Like I said it's a heads up post really I could care less what other people do with their licenses
