raysfish2005 Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 Just wondering if i take a copy of my Fishing Lic and boaters card, can i keep the real ones at home and use the copy's, I usually keep them both on the boat but have often fished with a friend with out as i have left my Lic in the boat. Or i run around the house like an idoit looking for them like i just did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsTheBassMan Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 Your boat license has to be the original. I would assume the same rules apply to your fishing license. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfield Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 Not sure Ray.. I put mine in my camera case and leave them there, as I never go fishing without the camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeeter Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 They are both the same size as a credit card. Why not carry them in your wallet just like your bank card? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigdritchie Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 You need to produce originals of all government-issued documentation. Get pulled over by a cop and he will want to see your actual driver's license - not a photocopy. I'm not certain, but fairly sure that putting a hole through either one will void them.

Dave Bailey Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 I used to keep mine in my tackle box, unfortunately I once spilled some Muskol into the box and the next time I tried to take it out it was pretty well glued to the bottom. Now it stays in my fishing vest, which I always wear when fishing, don't always have a tackle box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danbouck Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 I doubt it since you can print one off when you do it online Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhickey Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 (edited) why not put a couple zip lock bags in your tackle boxes as well as any thing you take out fishing ? this way you put your wallet in one cell in one and if you drop it in the drink it floats for a few seconds. long enough to retrieve it. and ITS DRY. keep the photocopys at home this way you have proof of ownership. thats what i do. copyes dont count for squat when confronted buy authorities. but if you loose origonals copys do help speed up the proces of getting new ones.
