Hunting and fishing license fees increase.

[tbone]

HB 691 if passed will increase the cost of hunting and fishing licenses for residents and non-residents.
It will also require a person to pay $15 to put numbers on a vessel powered by human power. Like kayaks and canoes that are paddled.

More taxation just to exist in this former Land of Freedom. I know a top Biologist for Wild Life and Fisheries. He told me hunting and Fishing Licenses and Bag Limits for personal use are no longer needed. So few people hunt and fish anymore that we could not harm the animal population. He said current Licenses and rules are just needed to fund LDWF agents who go around screwing with everyone. The days of commercial hunting are over and commercial fishing is already regulated.

Maybe hunting but no way with fishing. Fishing boat sales brake records each year and if you’ve been fishing long enough it’s not hard to see an increase in anglers on every body of water out there.

I have no idea other than everyone is in Debt up their eyeballs as to how people can afford boats. 50k truck and 80k boat. That is more than I paid for my house. Then they buy new ones every two or three years. Even making 200k a year than does make financial sense.

Yea it used to be getting financed for boats, ATV’s or motorcycles didn’t happen. Nowadays it’s as easy as buying a car. Just sign on the dotted line and take it away.

Truth be told, it is about time the fishing and hunting fees are raised in Louisiana.

We have some of the richest fish populations in the country, some of the most liberal creel limits, and some of the lowest fees. Another truth, though inconvenient is, we have some of the greediest recreational fishermen in the world!
