State Lands Use Licenses Required of Anglers

Print

The Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation (DNRC) and FWP remind anglers and floaters of the license requirements for recreational use of state school trust lands.

For all persons 12 years of age and older who use these lands for access, or for activities associated with fishing, floating or other recreational activities a license is required, if that use takes place above the high water mark. The license is available from all FWP license agents.

The cost of the license is $10 for adults 18-59 years of age, $5 for youngsters 12-17 and senior citizens 60 or over. A $20 family license for up to six immediate family members living in the same household also is available.

For information, contact your local DNRC office or phone (406)-444-2074.
