I hope you remembered what time of year it is. It’s the time to renew your fishing licenses and all that can come with it. I am sure you are aware that the WDFW has a new app, the MyWDFW, that allows you to get your licenses, catch record cards, etc., all online. Your information is then available on your phone. There are a lot of questions about just how this new system works, especially in areas where cell service isn’t available. A person I was fishing with yesterday was able to get his fishing license and print out a temporary in paper, but it took him two tries. I opted to get mine the old fashioned way this year, which may be the last time I can do so. I got my license, two pole endorsement and my Columbia River Endorsement, all for under $25, as I am a senior. I won’t need my Washington State Parks Natural Investment sticker for my truck until June. It looks like the cost for this one has doubled, so I may reconsider getting the annual license this year. I still consider the state fishing license a bargain for all the pleasure I get fishing here in Washington.
