marks1984 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Hi all, I hope this dose not turn political but the misses received her license renewal last night in the mail the fees are as follows 1 year $35.00 and 3 year $85.00. Am I the only person out there thinking it is a waste of money and just a way to sting us for a bit more coin for the government. Were I fish on the central coast all the ramps/wharfs are still the same nothing has been touched no new equipment everything Is the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wellzy94 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Hey Marks, DPI has an overview of what is done with the money from the fees, and there are further documents linked within that go into further detail. http://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/fishing/recreational/recreational-fishing-fee/licence-fees-at-work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frankS Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I for one have never minded paying for a licence to fish. Now I am a pensioner I don't need to pay but even many many years ago when you didn't need a licence to fish salt water and there was a fresh water fee I always paid and never minded it at all. The money does go for the benefit of fishing and in this day of living you pay for everything, geeze you even gotta have and pay for a dog/cat licence. Councils are responsible for upkeep of ramps etc. Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
