Hi Gordon. I am out of the office but will get you an answer ASAP!
Hi, Gordon — there are Complimentary Licenses (same privleges at a Hunt/Fish Combo) for a person over 70 years old and for disabled veterans. Please see our latest, 2015-16 Fishing Regulations booklet for more details (available in all our dealer offices. Here are those locations: https://www.azgfd.com/Agency/Offices
Me, my wife and our sub-10 year old grand-kids are planning a trip in the near future. Part of that trip will involve taking the kids lake fishing. Both of the kids have rods and reels. I no longer own any fishing equipment, so the wife and I won’t be fishing. Because the kids are under 10, they’re going to need help fishing. Will I need to purchase any fishing licenses?
Hi, Chris! Kids under age 10 are not required to purchase fishing licenses. If either you or your wife plan on actually fishing in order to teach the kids, then you would need fishing licenses. There are short-term (one day) licenses available. Hope that helps!
Are there any plans for those that are not vets but disabled?
Hi, Gordon. I have not heard of any plans for that. That would definitely be a Commission decision.
