Make sure you have BOTH card and license on your person whilst fishing. Had a CO tell me that the license isn't valid w/o the card present.

That makes sense, but I am asking if it is indeed necessary to have both a passport and drivers license. It's seems redundant to me.

Marshall,


Why do you suggest bringing a drivers license when you already have a passport? Just curious, not sure if I am missing something.

You just print off the license yourself, it opened in PDF maybe? maybe came in email form, not sure

I am about to go to the Quetico for the first time in a couple weeks. I am a bit confused about what I need to bring to show that I bought a fishing license. As required, I purchased the Outdoors Card and a fishing license online. As suggested, I printed off the temporary Outdoors Card and license.

Well, I received the Outdoors card in the mail but I never got a physical fishing license like I am used to getting in MN. Is my outdoors card tied to the license that I purchased? Should I expect a different card for the fishing license to come in the mail? Or is the printed license all I get?

Thanks for input in advance. Even the outfitter I am going through wasn't totally sure if the warden could look up the license through the Outdoors card.

Thanks!

You should be good. They don't send you a physical card for your fishing license. Put it in something waterproof. Also, you might want to make a copy in case you get it wet or lose the original. But you should be good to go.

Yup, im going for the 1st time and what Mike said is the way I understand it, Print your own LICENSE and take the actual credit card type OUTDOORS card with you.


along with your:
RABC form that they sent you
Drivers License
PassPort or Passport card (these are only needed when returning to US the way I understand it)



We leave on June 10th from Cache Bay heading up the falls chain to Kawnipi. Less than and MONTH! Woo-hoo!

I received the outdoor card but did not receive a license in the mail or in an email. When do I receive the license?
