		SO was the $10 fee to replace the license?
 
I realized last weekend on a check - that I had not only this year, but last year and the year's before - plus my son's. NEED to clean that mess up! Especially when the DNR officers exclaims "this is expired". Figured I had the most recent in the plastic baggy, but NO!
 
Anwho - I always carry mine, or have it close (if I'm bank tangling right next to the car - close enough).
I have wondered - if you don't have your license WITH you and get checked - they DO have you "in the system" - can they/would they look you up online?
Or give you something akin to a "fixit ticket" to verify you coverage after the fact?
 
I agree - smaller - even a credit card size would be good. I like the sticker idea for the second pole. Damned fine print - never sure what I'm handing them - so I just give them the stack, let THEM figure it out.
If you have a boat - be sure to have your boat registration, muscle certificate, and proof of insurance if required. They can/will check all that, and life jackets, oars - all the required safety features. (that was at Newton of all places! But I got a nice receipt sayig I'm "inspected" and "certified".
