Anglers are reminded that 2014 fish, game and trapping licenses expire on Saturday, Feb. 28. Some hunting and fishing seasons continue past Feb. 28, and new licenses are required.
Licenses for 2015 now are available from Minnesota Department of Natural Resources license agents, online and by telephone at 888-665-4236. All 2015 fishing licenses become effective Sunday, March 1.
Customers who purchase online via smartphone won’t receive a conventional paper license. Instead, they’ll receive a text message or email that serves as proof of a valid fish or game license to state conservation officers. A printed copy of the text or email also can serve as proof of a valid license.
Ice shelter permits for 2014 remain effective through Thursday, April 30.
