POLL-12 yr olds shouldn't pay license fees

[trollboy8]

I am also a scout leader and I can certainly see both sides of this. I think Tube Dudes solution is a great one; however, I see what so many of those kids bring on campouts and I don't know if I buy the "I don't have $5 to buy a license" argument. Maybe have them NOT buy a couple of their Sobe teas or energy drinks and that should about cover the $5 license. Obviously, I am generalizing here, but I do think most kids could get one. If not, I think that that could be a valid cost that could be counted against your budget. Speak with your scout commissioner and see if something can be done. I do feel for you, really, but I think that if your kids want to fish and you want to take them, there are certainly some solutions available.
