Llano County Licenses Confusion Prompts Sportsmen Alert
The News CORRAL reports many Texas sportsmen misbelieve that Llano County requires a resident fishing license. In fact a 55 cent county license exists only where artificial lure licenses do not apply, as state law requires an artificial lure license for fishing with lures or bait. The note urges Hazel Bowman of the Llano Chamber of Commerce to educate the public and predicts a push for uniform river area fishing regulations at the next legislative session.
