    Hey guys,

    Is there any reason *not* to get a lifetime hunting and fishing license in Louisiana, other than having to lay out $500 in one shot? Seems like a no-brainer since I'd be saving money after only five years.

    If you're over 50 you might not get your money's worth.

    I got the lifetime last year when I renewed. I'm 67 and a veteran and it was free. Just have to go to a class every 5 years. Not sure but I think the class is pretty much an in and out thing.

    I have had it for years. Never been to a class. I'm 57. I did go with my son years ago to the hunter education class. Just went to be with him.

    I'm sorry you guys. I had a serious brain fart here! For some reason I thought that this thread was about a CHP. That's what I get for not reading thoroughly. Please excuse!

    Ya'll are talking about two different things.

    The OP asked about a Louisiana a HUNTING license and some are talking about a Louisiana CHP.

    Two totally different things.

    I am 43 and was not in the military.

    They are talking about a Louisiana Concealed Handgun Permit not a Louisiana lifetime Hunting license.

    If you're young enough get the lifetime Hunting license. I'm too old it would pay for me but at my age I get it every year for $5

    The OP was about a Hunting and Fishing permit:

    Lifetime hunting/fishing license is a great gift for any kid age 5 to 13. It's only $300. Buy the time they reach 13, they should know if they enjoy hunting and/or fishing. Split the cost between a few relatives and got the license for my son for Christmas a few years ago.

    I believe it's $200 for both hunting and fishing lifetime under age 4. And goes up to $500 for both after that?
    Either way, it's worth it.....you never know one day they might do away with the lifetime,or increase the price as they have slowly been doing?
