I think TWRA does a fantastic job! My guess on the trout stamp is because of the winter put and take stocking. They don't survive the year. So they make people pay extra to catch and keep. The crappie, striper, and hybrid all grow for years and years. Who knows, just a thought.
I'm completely fine with the increase. The sportsman license is a great deal when you hunt big game. Most states have a separate archery, muzzleloader, and rifle license.
I look at my $30 increase in the sportsman. I will eat out one less time in 2015. Paid for.

Agree Mike, at least our money is not lumped into some general fund.
As far as the other heated posts, wow, just wow.

The price increase is not a big deal to me, how long has it been the same price? Like you said Mike, I pass on a bottle of Ciroc and it's paid for. I get my monies worth every year.

We all have opinions! I will happily pay the increase. I think TWRA does an excellent job with the resources. Come to think of 2015 - hopefully I will get to fish a little more next year from savings compared to recent years.....I sure do like this low-two dollar gas prices we've all seemed to be taking for granted!

No, I deer hunt too. I just don't think it's that big of a deal. I usually try and buy the sportsmen. I am going to get my son his lifetime here soon since it's 200 dollars.

Glad to know but this is a fishing forum not a hunting forum so common sense dictates that this would be the proper place for this info. So yes this is the proper place. Common sense isn't so common anymore.
I stand to pay more than most with this increase and I have no complaints. The TWRA are the stewards of our fisheries and the friend of the law abiding fisherman. They went to bat for us over the freedom to fish act and I have thier back.
