Something I missed from earlier this year. For 2010, the Department of Fish & Game no longer requires California anglers to have their fishing license in plain sight.
Initially it was a good idea, but the advent of licenses purchased over the Internet and printed by home computer eliminated the brightly colored paper – which allowed them to verify ownership from a distance.
Once again you can put your license in your wallet, leave that in the car, then do the “panic slap” of your pockets while the warden starts writing your ticket…

So where do you keep your license so you never forget it? I’m thinking taped inside my main flybox. Not that I have ever seen a warden.
I got lucky, I’ve a pocket sewn into the vest just for this purpose. I’ll probably still use it as I no longer live near salt water.
Im gonna write Assemblyman Snort and California is gonna issue a video rental liscense! These Fly vests are gonna be sold as BlueRay vests or 3D vests I dont care! But, god damn it, they’re gonna sell!
It was a bother to have to do that.
But, you got to stick to the rules, you know.
Now, where did I put my hat?
Thanks for sharing.
