Lifetime Fishing Licenses.... Are they for you?

For some reason, this message board didn't recognize me when I posted a reply last time. Guest should have read JohninColorado. On that $.25 surcharge on hunting and fishing licenses, without it having been paid, then the rescusee could be billed for the cost of the rescue by the rescuers, and that can get very expensive. More than once has a rescue helecopter gone down while attempting a rescue, or on the way, and they had to be rescued. I think a chopper fully equipped for mountain resecue carries a price tag in the neighborhood of $10 - $15,000,000 (pilot not included). Try collecting that from your homeowners insurance. But well worth the price if you're stranded above 10,000 ft, in a ravine, with a broken leg and a winter storm is brewing with the temperature dropping fast and you're just in summer clothes with just a Snickers bar in your pocket and your lighter just went dry.
