You can get them at Bass Pro Shop.

The prostitute replied (wiping away tears), "When the check bounced."

I always get mine online, they will give you a temporary license number you can write down until your real one comes in the mail. Takes about 5 min and is affective immediately. https://www4.wildlifelicense.com/fl/start.php

One per person, they have to show their drivers license and sign it. If you buy them online, they will need to enter their social security number, drivers license number or other personal info.phino wrote:ok, thanks for the replies everyone, one more question, i can purchase multiple licenses right? one for my friend, one for my dad, etc? since they will be at work and I am doing the run, or is it one per person (which I do not see why they would)? Thanks for the information, will pick it up later today so tomorrow I can go fishing.

some mom and pop bait and tackle shops sell them too..if you want to avoid the crowds at bps and wal-mart, check your favorite local bait and tackle shop.
