I lost 20k


Recommended Posts

I fished and caught a fish but my license expired while I was catching the fish. I got a message that I would get a fine if I kept the fish so I let them go to avoid paying and I got the same fine. But the weight of my basket didn't increase, so I didn't keep the fish. If you don't believe me, I have a video clip I could send you. And i lost 20k

Sometimes you can get away with it, the fine is for catching a fish without a valid license (keeping or releasing the fish does not matter, it's random).  If you're fishing at a waterway where the fight can take several minutes to complete it might be best to renew the license when you get the message that it will expire soon.

If you were using a rodstand it is possible to place the rod in it and renew the license from the shop before picking up the rod again (the fish may escape while doing this), or you can try and give the fish some slack line (low tension) so it can get away.
