Welcome to Andrew and Motz Outdoor Adventures! We’re thrilled that you’re considering fishing with us in beautiful Wisconsin, where the waters are teeming with a variety of fish species, from largemouth bass to walleye, trout, and pike. To ensure you can make the most of your time on the water, it’s important to understand how to obtain your fishing license and other key regulations. Here’s everything you need to know about fishing licenses, guides, and what to expect during your adventure.

How to Obtain Your Wisconsin Fishing License

In Wisconsin, anyone over the age of 16 is required to have a valid fishing license to fish in public waters, whether you’re casting a line from the shore or aboard a boat. Luckily, obtaining a fishing license is quick and easy.

Online: You can purchase your fishing license directly from the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) website. This method is fast, and you’ll receive an instant digital copy that you can print or carry on your phone. Simply visit the DNR website at https://dnr.wi.gov and navigate to the "Licenses" section to begin.

In Person: You can also purchase your fishing license at a local Wisconsin DNR office, sporting goods store, or authorized retailer. Make sure to bring your ID, and be ready to choose the type of license you need.

Types of Licenses:

  • Resident License: Available to Wisconsin residents, these licenses come in various durations, including annual and 3-day options.
  • Non-Resident License: If you’re visiting from another state or country, you’ll need a non-resident license, which is also available for different durations.
  • Specialty Licenses: There are additional permits for fishing in certain waters, including trout fishing or non-motorized lakes. Be sure to check if your trip requires any special permits.

Pricing: The cost of a fishing license varies depending on your residency and the type of license you choose. Visit the DNR website for the most up-to-date pricing information.
