New York License

[HookNrelease]

I have never had the need for a NY usa fishing license before now, but may be heading across that line in the water in the near future, So for someone in Toronto that has never ordered one before online how and where do you get one, I have found that the cost is $40.00, any info or advise would be apprciated.

 

Cheers

Go to the nearest walmart on the US side and buy one. Some walmarts are 24hrs but the vender that sells licenses sometimes does not open until 9-10am. Learned that the hard way.

For faster service because sometimes Walmarts here don't have anyone in the Sporting Goods section you can obtain a license at any of Dick's Sporting Goods stores or any of our town halls.

The on-line method only works for renewals.

I take it this means that the only way to get one is to physically waste a day to go to the States to get a lic.?

 

Guess I'll have to rethink doing the WFN Canadian Open in Kingston, as I cannot see me going to the other side for just a licence, which is required.

I got mine a Dick's a few weeks back, pretty painless was very disappointed in Dick's though, not much at all for what i was looking for Gander wasn't much better and the prices were higher for some stuff than they are here, that's why they call it shopping.

I do mine over the phone and get it in the mail in about 2-3 weeks.
