Fishing license
 
I'm trying to decide whether to get a fishing license before I arrive on July 28?? Does Walmart see them? OR where do you go?

Where are you going? :)

Are you planning to fish?

Oops! Going into Anchorage, down to Homer for a week; to Seward (really Moose Pass) for a week, then up to Denali.
I'm not a fisherman, but want to fish while there...AND do you get the stamps for Salmon?

Hi farm123 - you can get all the information you need on fishing licenses at the ADF&G website: www.admin.adfg.state.ak.us/license/. I'm pretty sure sport fishing licenses can be paid and printed online.

Most places sell fishing licenses, Walmart, Fred Meyers, and even some of the small convenience stores in towns like Homer. No worries!

In Alaska you can buy daily license if you know you will not be fishing for a few days. However, if you plan on doing quite a bit of fising on your travels to Homer, you may want to by a 7 day license. Salmon stamps are an addtional fee, so to fish for salmon, you need a license & a stamp. I either get my at Fred Meyer's in Soldotna or the Safeway grocery in Homer.
