Another reminder of Calif. fishing licenses

This is another reminder that those anglers who plan to fish in the State of California are required to have a 2008 fishing license.

The 2008 Non-Resident, annual California fishing license is $104.20 per person at all regular license outlets. A one-day fishing license (Resident or Non-Resident) will cost $12.60. A two-day fishing license (Non-Resident) will cost $19.45. A ten-day fishing license (Resident or Non-Resident) will cost $38.85.

A second rod stamp is $12.10. That stamp allows an angler to fish with two rods or lines in inland waters, except for those waters in which only artificial lures or barbless hooks may be used.

California fishing licenses and stamps are available at a number of local outlets including:

Carson City

Long's Drugs.
