License...

[Luv2angle]

Ok, I just got a new Guide Fish-Trap...I need to know what exactly I have to get on the house! Does my license 3 have to go in the big slot on the back? Whats all the necessary items i need? I forget, it's been a while since I had to get all the shelter tags and such!

You need your license displayed and your DL, or DNR # displayed on the exterior of your house.

I got a warning the other night for my portable. I had a license for it but it was not visible from the outside.

DNR number in 2" or larger numbers and your current shelter tag.

I did what someone advised on this site. Went and bought a plastic "For Sale" sign and bought 2" individual decal #'s (all at fleet farm in the hardware section). Put it on the back of the sign (blank side), then cut around the numbers. I have a Shappell DX3000 without the license holder, so I taped it to the inside window. For the shelter tag, I mounted it on the a leftover part of that for sale sign and covered the whole thing in packing tape. Then taped that to the inside window as well. Not the prettiest, but it should hold up and be compliant with the regs... I think.

a laminator or contact sheets work really well for making a license placard, or for protecting your shelter tag. I printed out on a computer my DNR# in 2" letters. I laminated the sheet of paper and then slid it into my license holder. For my shelter tag, I laminated it, left some extra plastic on the top, and then punched a hole through the top. I put a key ring through the punch hole and fastened the tag to the zipper on my front door.

I used an old white sheet and just wrote my numbers on it. I pinned it up with 4 safety pins. Works for me i guess

For my shelter tag I use a tip that I picked up on FM.

We buy Tide detergent liquid in the bottle. I cut a piece of the bottle out and adhere the tag to it. I go a little over-size on the plastic and punch a hold through it. Then I can clip it to the shelter.

It's orange too for better vis.

Thanks for the great idea on the shelter tag DeadHead! That sounds full-proof! As for the DNR#...is that the same thing as your Drivers License #?? The Clam that I bought has the plastic piece on the back, is that what it is for???

[DEADhead]

the DNR # is the number listed on your license. It will never change. It is different from your driver's license

I received a warning last year for not having my name and address on my portable. Not sure but isn't that info on the shelter tag that I had on the shack.

MDNR# XXX-XXX-XXX

it's on your license in bold just under the box on the top.

you got it luv2angle, it's the 9 digit number.

Was either your name and address, DL# or DNR # in 2" letters on your shelter? if not that's why you got the warning. It clearly states that you need this on your shelter, even though your license has that info on it. How is a CO supposed to read the print on your tag with his bonoculars?
