I have no issue with the principle of the senior license...and the way you break it down, I agree 100%...but I don't like the agenda behind the license...

I hear ya, but it's speculation at best. I have no idea what the real reason is behind this proposal but, like you, I feel a senior licence has it's place. Whether it comes to fruition or not is another story.

I completely disagree with those who have some skewed sense of entitlement to be able to fish for free just because they've been on this planet for x number of years.
