Where did you read that? There is no mention of any kind of delay on the Delware Fish and Game website. http://www.fw.delaware.gov/Pages/FWPortal.aspx |

Well, it only took me three months to get around to this, but it still looks like you need to register. http://www.fw.delaware.gov/Pages/FWPortal.aspx |

"Who must obtain a F.I.N. number? All residents and non-residents who are age 16 or older (including 7-day non-resident licensed anglers) wishing to recreationally fish in Delaware waters. This
includes even those anglers not
required to obtain a general fishing
license, such as residents 65 or older, those fishing from a vessel
licensed for fishing"  Wow I didn't know that! I got check what VA is doing with this........ |

A buddy of mine is a DNR officer and they think it is the forerunner to a federal fishing license. We'll see I am running out of room to put stickers on the side of my boat though.

Thats kinda what everyone is saying here too. I need to do some reading. Didn't know folks that went fishing on charter boats will need a FIN...  |

delaware is doing this to avoid a federal fishing license and to increase their share of the federal money collected by the tax on fishing gear, before is was based on fresh water license numbers now they can count every one party boaters dont need a fin number.

Everyone who fishes, even for a day, in the state of Delaware needs to have a license along with the FIN.

For crab traps (not pits) in Delaware does it matter what color my floats are?
How should trap floats be marked? I didn't see anything in the regs.

I think they are supposed to be all white. I'll look to confirm that.

It is white and I agree with Stuff. There is just about every color of the rainbow out there in terms of floats, and I haven't heard about the float-color fashion police busting balls over displaying a color other than white. Reminds me of the Andre Agassi @ Wimbleton 20 or so years ago.  |
