I was wondering if we can buy licences on line now?

Anglers who wish to pre-purchase their Freshwater Fishing Licences for the upcoming 2008/2009 season, may do so now through March 31st, 2008.

Sometimes I wish I lived in Alberta but I guess we have to pay because we have better fishing oppurtunities or a poorer government ???

I was hoping they would change to the WIN card like Alberta.No more paper licenses and fits into your wallet.

Jezz,and with the WIN card system comes extra CO's that would make extra money for the province,BC just does not get it.No wounder the licensed fisher's in BC are dropping off,who needs a license anyway these days here ???

Gee maybe I'm doing something wrong because I buy a lisence in Alberta every year and they ask me for my WIN #. WIN cards are good for 5 years but you still gotta purchase your paper lisence was my understanding?

My mistake TGF.I forgot that you need to get a license on top of your Win card.It would probably help if I got there more often.How does the cost compare to BC?

Peanuts when compared to BC....I think it was close to 20$ and that is for everyone in Canada for an annual one.

Just checked and it went up to $25.66 plus GST for year for Canadians.

BC is definitely more costly but many fishing opportunities. ABout 40 for the regular year +10 for steelhead or something +15 or something for classified waters + another 20 or something for tidal waters. Did i miss anything? I think it totals nearly 100 bucks just in licences here for the year.

But I wouldn't miss a season for the best burger in town ;)
