If you love fishing, having a suspended fishing license could be devastating. Keep your passion and your privileges on the water active by being mindful of the ways in which you could potentially lose them.
Having your fishing license revoked means you can't go fishing, even on free fishing weekends. While each state has different laws and regulations, check out a few examples of things you should do so that you can keep reeling 'em in.
In addition to these examples, make sure you purchase a fishing license prior to your fishing trips or renew your existing license to make sure it is valid. Avoid having your fishing license revoked by always fishing legally and responsibly.
