How many of you have lost your license because the fastener failed or got caught on a tree?

I shoot skeet with a lawyer, and he said that not having your license displayed means that an officer has probable cause to ask you for ID and the license information. This is from him. I'm just relating it, so don't ask me any more, but that's what he said was a benefit for the WCO.

As for me, I will continue to wear my license on my shoulder bag in which I pack my lures, flies, needlenose, knife, stringer, emergency power bait, etc.. I don’t need another card or piece of paper in my wallet and, as others have said, I’ll make life easier for the WCO’s and me.

I thought the display requirement had been revoked some years ago?
I still wear mine and will likely continue to do so.
I'm not sure about a digital license on the phone - this could pose some problems.
There is nothing "fuzzy" about the requirement. You must display either your license or your button. If you display the button you must carry your license and provide it to an officer upon request.RLeep2 wrote:

If by "pack", you mean that you need not worry about carrying the paper/hard copy license if you are displaying the button, I'm not so sure..
I was checked twice this past year not far from home by deputy WCOs. Both times, I was displaying the button but they also wanted to see the hard copy which I had in my wallet and on my person.
It may be that the actual requirement is fuzzy enough that it is left to the individual WCO's discretion to demand to see the hard copy.
I dunno..
It all becomes kinda moot anyway given the change in the law.
