Your 2012 Fishing license expires today
 

Remember dont hit the water this weekend without the new 2013 license.
Happy Fishing be safe on the water!

I read where you can purchase them online and have a copy on your smart phone and just show that to the TWRA. I would hate for my phone to have no bars when they pulled up to me..haha

Get your new license, take a photo of it with your phone. If you have your phone, you'll have your license with you.
I do this with my boarding passes when I travel. I just scan my phone's photo at the boarding gate and don't have to worry about the paper boarding pass. I mean, we all know where our phone is all the time, right?
I kind of startled some of Delta's gate personnel. Apparently they hadn't seen it done before and didn't realize it was possible. But it worked every time in every airport. Nashville, Atlanta, Florida, Stuttgart, Germany, Munich, Germany, Amsterdam, and Heathrow in England.

I picked mine up today. Good to go for another year.

I asked a GW about this. He said you must have your license on you, not just a photocopy. Same for Hunters Safety card.

I bought mine with my phone and it says right on the TWRA site, the image it sends you on your phone is your license to show them. Picture is all I need.

I picked up mine at Walmart. Is there a way to get it to my phone from TWRA?
That would be handy for overnight camping/fishing trips.

Thanks for the link! Looks like I can can check in my spring gobblers too.

When I first moved here, I had no idea that the license expires the last day of Feb. In Florida it's a year from the date of purchase (which makes a whole lot more sense than the rule here) and I just assumed it was like that in every state because, again, it makes sense to do it that way.

So I moved here in August, bought a license, got stopped in April by a TWRA guy. I had been living in TN for less than a year and figured I was fine, wrong. I begged and pleaded with the guy and told him it was an honest mistake and that I just moved here and was unaware. He showed me no mercy and wrote me a 200 dollar fine which I think is a bit overkill.

Don't get caught without your license!!

Yup, you're a white male, with a valid driver's license so they know they can track you don't if you don't pay up!

From the senior side .. <'TK><
 

If this was facebook I would "like" that comment.

+1.......that works too.....

I hold yearly license's in several states Tennessee, Alabama, Florida (salt and fresh) Indiana, and Georgia. It's tough keeping them all straight. It would be nice to be able to purchase a national license, but I know that the money for a license goes to that state.
