Quick question on the tidal license. I had the boat license last year, but I'll be running 2 different boats this year, so I opted for a regular paper license. I'm a non resident, and what they gave me was an 8.5x11 trifolded paper. Do you need to carry that whole sheet with you, or just the first section that says MD Dept Natural Resources Non Resident Fishing License, then it has name, birth date and issue date? Thanks!

I cut mine down to 3.5" X 4". I kept all the numbers, teh signature and cut it just below the license fees. I also keep a pdf incase I lose it.

I've always been cutting mine down to as small as possible and still show all the info to include the final total at the bottom. I keep it in my wallet and sometimes by late in the year the printing starts wearing off. So I'll put on a layer of 2" wide clear packing tape and the print stays readable all year.

Thanks for the replies. The boat license makes it handy not to worry about carrying a license, but I didn't feel like springing for 1 for each boat.

you can still get a boat license in case you have other people on your boat, it will cover you on the other boat, but no one else

Make sure you don't cut off the date. If you print it online it's way down below where you might fold or cut it. Had a DNR agent last year say to me, "I don't know what that is, I don't see a date!" Since my stickers had blown almost all the way off, I didn't have much recourse. He was being particularly *strict* and also wrote me a warning ticket for a hook prick in my throw cushion.
