Skipper D Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 After hearing all the horrora on the board this winter about anglers trying to get their fishing licence renewed with the new system thats now in place , i chose to leave mine to the last minute, because of not wanting to face the hassels . Dispite every thing i was told this week about trying to get one i just went on line to Service Ontario and renewed mine , it was easy and hassel free and only took a few minutes , seems every thing is up and running well .

Rod Caster Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Haven't received my license since buying it Jan 1 and they still owe me 50 bucks. Will I ever see that check? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Bob Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 I renewed mine online 3 weeks ago and got it in the mail last week Dan, did they actually mail you a fishing license or was it the outdoors card....the reason I ask it because I received my new 3 year outdoors card in the mail about 3-4 weeks after I did it online (Jan 2nd)....BUT I had to print my "FISHING LICENSE" and I'm glad I did because they never mailed me a "Fishing License" from Canada and I believe I will never get one mailed because the printed downloaded version says "FISHING LICENSE" compared to the printed version of my outdoors card that said TEMPORARY Outdoors Card... Just trying to clear this up and at the same time make sense of it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Bailey Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Went to Gagnon Sports about 3 weeks ago and got the floppy piece of yellow plastic. Haven't received my card yet, or do I even get one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish_fishburn Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 I went to service ontario and bought mine 3 weeks ago. Got my card in the mail last week. I wanted to keep my old card for a sovineir but she wouldn't give it back to me, said she had to keep it. Found that weird, what do they do with the old ones, through them in the garbage.

I saved the pdf to my desktop so i can reprint if it gets mangled in my tacklebox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
