how to find out if my license is expired?
 

so my wallet got stolen along with my fishing license and i forget when it expires. it could be June or November. do i just go to academy and ask them and theyll look it up for me? or is there another way?

I thought ALL hunting/fishing licenses(except lifetime) for Texas expired August 31. I don't buy just a fishing license, I always buy the super combo. this is from the TPWD website
this addresses lost/destroyed licenses
Lost/Destroyed License, P ackage or Stamp E ndorsement: here's the link to the info on TPWD's website

You can buy a license thats from date of purchase to 1 year out.

yeah, I saw that - I just always renew this time of year - I'm waaaaaaaaaaay to old to be buying a lifetime license now, sure wish I'd done that when they first started.

Go ahead and go fishing, make sure you have your drivers license and the game waden will let you know when its expired!

Most of the time they expire on 8/31. Unless you purchased a year to date one. Usually, you have to ask for that one. Either way, you'll need to get one, if you want to go again, and be legal. But buy it now, and it will last till next year...

your license is attached to you DL you do not have to keep it on you to fish. i just cant keep my 1 drum because i no longer have a tag, but if i dont have the actual license i can still be legal. and i always buy a year to date one.

whats this life time one?
