Turning 65 in 2016 - does one need to renew their license?

Hay bud, I had to because I turned 65 in March last year. I feel your pain, You can take a chance, but it's up to you. :rolleyes:

You never know when the Cowboys will show up and check. :rolleyes::D

 

As I said, I'm not inquiring for myself, I'm only 50. My brother-in-law checked the MNR site and can't seem to find a definitive answer, in his opinion anyway, so that's why I'm asking.

I turn 65 in March of 2016 and will not renew my fishing licence. Weather is too warm for ice fishing this year.

What kind of government issued ID should I carry in my fishing box that will not get wet? I have an old expired drivers licence and wonder if that will do as ID. I usually don't carry my wallet with me while fishing in case it gets wet or lost.

I've been checked a few times, all I show is my drivers licence. One guy that asked me for a fishing licence, I told him I was 65, he took my word as I was getting my wallet out.

If you're not going to fish till you're 65 you should be OK

How about using your birth certificate? Mine is plasticized.

You must have a very old one. The new ones are not plasticized and it is illegal to laminate them.

 

However, a zip lock bag should be able to keep all your ID dry in the boat. I use them for anything that needs to stay dry when I am out in the boat.
