Fishing license?

[BuzzStPoint]

So far I've only fished regular fishing. I buy a husband and wife license.

Next week I'll be going on Lake Michigan (from algoma WI) to go salmon fishing.
What kind of license do I need? Salmon license? any special license for lake Michigan?

Try that link. As long as you stay in Wisconsin waters that will do it for you.

Re: Fishing license?

Based on the WI DNR, you need to get at least a salmon/trout stamp for the great lakes ($10). But on the pay schedule, it shows a "2-Day Great Lakes Fishing for $14 which includes the stamp. I'm not sure what that is. I'd probably go to a local sports store and ask them and get it from them.

Here's the link to the schedule: http://dnr.wi.gov/org/caer/cs/restypes.asp

I went down to Fleet farm.

Told me I need the Great Lakes Trout/Salmon stamp.
Added 10 bucks to my regular fishing license.
