The SIP Requirement

Remember, the $15 base license covers both fresh and saltwater. However, to legally fish the ocean or tidal areas, you MUST add the free Saltwater Information Program (SIP) permit to your cart during checkout. No SIP, no saltwater fishing!

Short-Term Flexibility

Georgia's short term licenses offer a great feature: after buying the base 1-Day ticket ($5 Res / $10 NR), you can add up to 10 consecutive days to it for just $1.00 (Res) or $3.50 (NR) per additional day!
