HUGE NEWS!! MyFWC Florida Fish and Wildlife will have to return the 3 & 7 day out of state resident temporary licenses back to their website for sale by June 1st! Thank you everyone who helped us accomplish this goal so quickly especially our friends at Florida Guides Association , The American Sportfishing Association, Twisted Limbs Bowfishing and the Florida State House and State Senate! However, none of this could have happened if it wasnt for all the support online from fishing friends like you all making the news media aware and getting soo much coverage on this story over the past week! Big win for fishing access and keeping FWC in line with policy, and of course the out of state residents who seek these licenses when they come into town!
