Give us a try!
Welcome back to the new NEFF. Take a break from Twitter and Facebook. You don't go to Dicks for your fly fishing gear, you go to your local fly fishing store. Enjoy!

I've had a non-resident licence for 4 years now. Started at $30, then $40. I can live with $70. As was mentioned, it's still cheaper than most rounds of golf. Also when I divide the $70 by the number of days I'm on the water it doesn't seem so bad.

I agree with Cdog - NYS has good and varied fishing. Just spent a few days in the Finger Lakes with a buddy and we caught pike, huge pickerel, 14" yellow perch, lakers to 30", smallmouth, rainbows, and browns. In two days pike on the fly in Seneca Lake, fly fishing for browns in a breathtaking gorge, jigging for lakers in Cayuga, and finding monster smallies in a small trib stream of Cayuga. All fish were bigger and healthier than I generally find in NJ. In addition to the fishing, everywhere we went the boat launches were first rate and the streams had PFRs and well kept, well marked parking.
Add to that Ontario trib steelie fishing, Catskill trout, central NYS smallie and walleye fishing, and fall trib fishing for landlocked salmon and browns. The NYS license still seems a bargain to me at $70. It is also the smallest part of the money I drop visiting NYS.

Jeff,
I hope you kept a few of those yellow perch. Some of the best eating fish in the world.
Definately a bargain...but don't tell Gov. Paterson or his crew.

Gosh, that was a favorite spot of mine many years ago. Where will they get the fish to stock if they close the hatchery down?

Well since their going to raise the price, I guess I'll have to get it Oct 1st.
That way you'll get your monies worth out of it by being able to get 365 day's of the year.
Oct. 1st 2009, NY $70.00 non resident
Jan 1st 2010, PA $61.00 non resident
Jan 1st 2010, NJ $35.00 Resident
$166.00 worth of licences, wonder if that's tax deductable.
Would be nice if it was, but probably not likely.

PA is 61 bucks with a trout stamp
If the gas prices go up like they might over the summer and stay up there in price, the increase to $70 for a New York State license, the economy getting worse, people being laid off, purchasing flies for a local shop and the hooks fall off, all adding up to a sour out look for you American's.
I wonder how much that is going to hurt the business up in Pulaski this salmon season?
Just one data point. The guide I fish with in the Finger Lakes has been in business for 4 years. For the first two years his business grew at over 25%. Last spring the guides were arguing if the high price of gas would hurt or help (people would go to NYS instead of some more distant spot) the Finger Lakes. Well, business was off 10% last year with the high gas prices. This year however he is having his best year ever and is regularly doing evening trips after his day trips. In addition, last year the fishing was smoking and this year it has been just OK.
Lot of theories, but hard to predict in real life.

Guy's ans gal's....your in it for the long run. The way to beat the State is to purchase a lifetime license. I have had a lifetime sportsmens for 19 years. I also got them for each of my three kids before they turned five. Half price!".........LIFETIME" NO BS PRICE JUMPS FOR ME. They also send you all of your tags in August.

You would think the village of Pulaski would remove the parking restrictions, and make it more "fishermen friendly"...after all, this is their major industry. Brings a lot of dough to the the fly shops, stores, watering holes etc.

You would also think that crazy lady in the village would loose the "douglaston" mentality and not post her twenty feet of property in the town pool. That spot isn't that great anyways.
I still don't understand what all the fuss is over the license increase. It's just money that isn't worth the paper it is printed on.
I use to post her reports.. that also got her fly shop name out there.
After the sign went up I stopped posting her reports and trading at her place.
For a women, she does have a filty mouth. In my book nothing lower than a woman who talks like a drunken sailor.

Maybe at $70 they can get something a bit more duarble than the paper. The printing on my current out of state licence (brown colored paper) has faded/rubbed off to the point that if I get checked by someone, I hope it will be legible enough to read. I usually get my licence at the Cabela's in Tonawanda and in the past they have laminated them. This year, that was not an option.
In Ontario and many other provinces/states they issue a credit card type of licence with spaces to apply yearly stickers. Perhaps an idea for NY.

I'm good with the fee increase as long as a good share on those increased revenues go to keeping the habitat and hatchery work going or improving. Hey, the Rome hatchery dumped some real nice sized browns here bouts this year- Kuddos to them!

Bluenose, you could always get the cheap laminate from wal-marx or staples. My father uses that to make a phone roster for the my sis' lacrosse team.
AK, yes she used to be a stripper in Syracuse. If you ask her next time you are in there she will show you her photo album.
