Fishing and travel
How much of a pain is it to travel and fish at different parts of the US? Like I assume if you are at a Park that has their own body of water no license is required.
Just want to know because we are getting ready to head out for a month or so and fishing would be fun.Upstate NY

In Oklahoma you can buy non-resident fishing licenses online.
Annual Fishing License - $55 (valid Jan. 1 - Dec. 31)
6-Day Fishing License - $35 (valid six consecutive days of choice)
1-Day Fishing License - $15 (valid one day of choice)
I have bought non-resident licenses in several other states as we have traveled. It was all online using my phone.2016 Ford F350 DRW King Ranch

It's not really a pain. It's just a question of whether you find the money spent on licenses to be worthwhile. For some, yes, others, no. For me, I figure if I can spend however much to fill tanks of fuel getting across a state, spending a nominal fee on a license even if only for a day or two is justified. But, I like fishing enough to spend the extra $$.

Ca. has two (I think) free fishing days a year. You can also buy 1 to 3 day non-resident licenses. Knowing Ca.

Well in that case, you'll have to check regs for each state because they do vary quite a bit. In most state parks when you pay for the permit to enter you can fish without a state fishing license if the water is fully surrounded in the park. If the park adjoins a public water, then you would need a state fishing license. I am not aware of similar situations for national parks, but there could be. I know Voyageurs Nat'l Park requires the state license but the waterway is not entirely within the park. Any other national park I've visited I just haven't attempted to fish to date. The nice thing is that these days you can pretty much handle all of that online so it makes it a lot easier than in the "old" days.

Texas allows you to fish from the bank in state parks without a license.

Perhaps I was mistaken. Maybe things have changed over the years or I just projected what I know from MN. I guess you would just have to check first. Apologies for the misinformation. We don't stay in a ton of state parks so I buy a license if I want to fish in a state we're visiting. I thought that was a common rule but must not be.
