CHEAPER FISHING LICENSE BUT FEWER FISH

Cook State Senator Tom Bakk said the DNR is thinking about raising fishing license fees and reducing limits again. Bakk said he has a better idea, a part-time license that doesn't cost as much. The Senator said he's calling it a 'conservation fishing license' and anglers would agree to reduce the catch in possession. Bakk said its a way to change the culture of fishing that measures success by a big take rather than a good day of recreation. A similar bill has been introduced in the Minnesota House.
