The supposed financial kickback the PFBC gets is a good thing (at least if you have faith they'll use it appropriately.) For that reason alone I have bought and taken a kid the last three years.Don’t know why PA F&B needs a kids social number for a 1 day “free” permit. We’ll pass on tomorrow. Plenty of fishing with the grandkids coming up.

I’d rather see them have adults get the permit, since we are the mentors.

I'll be taking a 7 year old tomorrow. He will be using a spinning rod but chucking junk flies on it.
I'm not disagreeing, but why would it make a difference? When they monitor the child they gain info on potential new customers in years to come. (That's both good and bad.)I’d rather see them have adults get the permit, since we are the mentors. I’d gladly add that to my license
Looks like little pcray was having a great time! He's getting it done. 🙂
Glad you had a good time! Is that Lancaster County? He's in deep!
No, Lebanon I believe, if I'm wrong it'd be Dauphin as its close to the border. It's the Quittie. North of Palmyra.Glad you had a good time! Is that Lancaster County? He's in deep!
Love the hat. Miss those days, though my teenager still plays on the sly, I know!
I believe the online fishing license sales system is tied into another system to lookup those who are failing to pay child support. I presume the SSN is used to look that up. And the programmers probably put no lower age limit on applicants; ergo it is a required entry for all users in the system. There's probably some other requirement for licensure that demands a SSN be collected as well.Don’t know why PA F&B needs a kids social number for a 1 day “free” permit. We’ll pass on tomorrow.

They need them to catch those deadbeat kids who ain't paying their child support.I thought it was weird having to add SSN for the free permit but now he has his CID #, something he would get at some point in time anyway.
