Fishing License Exemption for Persons with Mental Disabilities The Fishing and hunting License Act Provides for permits to be issued which authorizes a mentally retarded person or resident of a home for the aged to fish without a license if they are accompanied by 1 or more adults. The supervising adult must possess a valid fishing license. See the Fishing Guide for more information on licenses. Senior Citizen Fishing License for Legally Blind Residents A resident who is legally blind may purchase a senior citizen fishing license. Proof of blindness must be presented to the license agent by the qualified blind person.The person who purchases such licensee must carry both the fishing license and the “proof of blindness” used to to purchase that license, while fishing. Acceptable proof of legal blindness can be either a letter or report from an optometrist or ophthamologist stating that the customer is legally blind or has a visual acuity of less than 20/200, or a State of Michigan ID card issued by the Secretary of State which states that the person is legally blind. The licensee, when hunting or fishing, must possess proof of eligibility and must furnish proof upon request of a law enforcement officer.

Friday, May 23rd, 2008Always looking to UPGRADE
Friday, May 23rd, 2008If something doesn’t pan out the way you want, you fix it. In this case, if the engine you have is too small, you go big. That was the case this season. Remember the new Triton duck boat last year, well I had a 15 hp 4 stroke Mercury, so i used it. Way under powered.
This year I had some extra change, and went big, lots bigger. If your tried and true lets you down, throw the old gal into the hear or recycle her, go and get what you want. In this case, I went 40hp in the new 2009 Evinrude E-tech. Like an old worn out mare who had been drinking sulphur water, this is like a new colt on mountain fresh.
Top end on the 15 hp was barely 9 mph with a person sitting in the bow. With 3 people in the boat, none in the bow, that 40 was kicking at 35 mph. Pun intended, all the props go to Bi-State Marine. Great price, knowledgeable staff, and more to come after fishing the boat in the morning! Lots of details about this motor will make a few heads turn.
if what you got isn’t working, get r done! Look at the beef in that rear end.
