Will my license come in the mail or do I print them off? Also, can I go fishing immediately before they are mailed (if they are mailed) by just using a confirmation # or do I need to have a hard copy.
It is my understanding that it will be mailed if it is an annual license or permit.
You are good to go as soon as you purchase. If you have printing capability, just print off a copy showing the completed transaction. Without the ability to print, at least have the transaction/confirmation number.
If you have a smart phone, you can purchase through the TWRA app and save the license to your phone for an electronic and paperless version.
