Of the many outdoor activities Vermont is proud of is fishing.
There are many places and opportunities to fish in Vermont whether you chose to go to one of the giant lakes, or one of the thousands of tiny streams. There are always fish to be caught if one knows what they are doing.
However, nobody will get far without a fishing license. The state of Vermont requires that all people must have a legal fishing license in order to cast their line. If caught without a license by fish and wildlife, a sort of nature police, you can get stuck with hefty fines and lose your ability to obtain a permit for a number of years.
The repercussions of getting caught without a license may be steep, but getting one is not that hard. Pretty much any outdoors shop such as a gun shop, sports store, or town office supplies fishing licenses. A few signatures, some paperwork and a small fee, somewhere between twenty and thirty dollars, and the license is yours.
Just because you have your license now does not mean you can go rid the world of all underwater life.
There are stipulations and regulations that apply and many times their specific to what body of water you are fishing in. For example one lake may be catch and release only, another may only be fishable during certain months of the year, another may have size limits to what you can keep.
There are over fourteen fishable species in Vermont including trout, bass, and pike.
