Question about licensing

[norm70]

Has the game and fish considered ever doing a combo license for both husband and wife that anyone knows of? Or a combo license with a husband/wife fishing license and single hunting licenses? I usually buy the husband/wife fishing license in the off chance my better half wants to throw in a line while out on the boat, I also buy the combo license for deer pheasants etc...Seems silly to buy 2 fishing licenses.

Also what about a license that covers everything but big game, Waterfowl, Early Goose, Duck stamp. Would make it alot easier on less intelligent guys like me wouldnt have to about buying any other licenses.

if I am looking at it right, you would be $6 ahead if you bought your self the combo as you do and then buy better half a individual fishing license. You are making 2 purchases anyway change those to save a little. To my knowledge that has no been talked about, but that would have to be changed by the legislature and not by the department itself, they could maybe present and push for it but cannot change themselves. Seems at times the more options there are the more confused some people get, number as I see it.
Combo $50 couple fishing license $22 total of $72
Combo $50 Single fishing license $16 total of $66
that's how I see it, but could have missed something dukgnfsn

For my wife and I it's the Combo for me and the individual Fishing for her. She has very little interest in hunting other than sitting in a blind with me occasionally (very occasionally). And on those occasions it better be a pretty warm blind. If they do go to a husband/wife combo I doubt the price would be less than the current $66 that it costs. I like combo's for me because they cover everything I would need.
