8 more for me....................
WAVEWALK DEMO AGENT: Send me a message if you want to try the W500,W700 and soon the S4.
You can take what you want from life......As long as you give a little Back. "We never get over the fishing fever, it's a delightful disease and thank the lord there is no cure". "CTF, is a lure I can not afford to NOT have in my pocket"
Don’t argue with Idiots.. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
Our freedoms are being choked, big brother's grip is getting tighter.
would it be possible to enact a lifetime fishing/hunting license for purchase at an early age ( 3 or less) simelar to other states? i noticed neighboring states have an awesome situation where parents can purchase lifetime licenses for thier children at different prices up to 3 years old, with a newbord purchase far less than doing so at 3. seems like a great deal for both the state and for anglers of the future.
Rich, there is no fee now but there is talk of imposing a small fee to cover administrative costs. There are other states that have a small fee for these senior "free" licenses so I guess they figure that maybe it would be good for Ct. too. For you youngsters that are not there yet what is "free" is only the base license; tags like turkey, deer, etc. are regular price for seniors too. So Ct. is still an expensive place to fish and hunt even for oldtimers.

Hey, I've got an idea... instead of charging for having to administer the license every year, make them (the inland and marine licenses anyway) lifetime. That way, once they are in the system, they don't need to spend any money administering them.

Everybody's got to believe something — I believe I'll go fishing.
The renewals in that manner would not meet the Federal mandate to count/register saltwater fisherman. My town taxes are paying for administrative costs of my annual license and with most of my town taxes going to town schools and not having kids in school for the last thirty years, it's the least the town could do for me.
