License Requirements!

-Every passenger needs a Lic and salmon catch record card / tag regardless of Age.
-In Oregon, Non resident kids 11 and under get an annual Lic for free but are required to purchase a $5 combined angling tag. Use the same purchase process for them as well. Their catch record card / tag is required on board because we are fishing for salmon. Each salmon needs to be tagged on their card regardless of age. For Washington resident kids 14 and under it is free and you only need to buy the annual combination lic and the catch record card.
