Various outlets, such as “bait and tackle” dealers and sporting goods stores, are authorized to sell and issue these licenses as well.

Hunting and fishing licenses also may be purchased or renewed by telephone for an additional fee. A valid hunting and/or fishing license must be carried on his or her person when participating in these activities.
