(AP) -- LANSING, Mich. - The Michigan Department of Natural Resources and Environment says anglers now can buy a 24-hour fishing license with any Web-enabled mobile device.
The agency announced the project, called Mobile Fish, on Wednesday. It's a joint effort between the DNRE and the Department of Technology, Management and Budget.
Mobile device users can purchase a 24-hour, all species fishing license with a credit or debit card for $7. Purchasers choose the date and time they would like their 24-hour license to begin, enter their valid Michigan driver's license or State of Michigan ID, make a payment and receive a confirmation number.
DNRE Director Rebecca Humphries says Mobile Fish is intended to "make it easier to get out on the water and go fishing."
