macattack678 USN (Ret) Registered: 01/25/05 Posts: 3876 Loc: North Stonington	A coworker just asked me if he needed a fishing licence to fish the pond on his private golf club. I don't think he does but I figured I'd better check to be sure. "Good decisions come from experience. Experience comes from bad decisions."

If he's fishing on someone else's property he needs a license unless the location has a Private Waters permit or Association Controlled Waters permit.

If he's paying a membership fee then he's not an owner.
