Posting this from a post on another site: If it is true, then that is great. Anyone have anything that would contradict this?
"Just came across this new flash. About four months too late for me because I renewed my in Sept 07 for around $90. As of January 2008 you are no longer required to have boat permits to fish Mexican waters. I thought maybe this was the beginning of a new "Urban Legend" so I called the Mexican sportfishing office in San Diego. He said I was just passed my congress and hopefully will last for every. I asked if I could get a refund for the eight months remaining and he said no. Fishing permits are still required though. I have gotten boat and annual fishing permits for the past three years now. Where my boat is I almost always end up in Mexican waters. I have heard endless horror stories of people without the proper permits so I always play it safe. Annual license are good for a year from the time you buy."
