What I am interested in...how big is the user group (number of licensed users) VERSUS the total $ amount of license fees that contributes to WDFW budget. Is it quite possible the total dollar value users are contributing is LESS THAN the WDFW budget? While I love fishing, and enjoy the opportunities WFDW gives me, I can't say that the cost that commercial license holders pay (remember, that's their living) should be equal to what I pay to enjoy this as a HOBBY.

I know! Totally against the grain here, but it's worth discussing!
