Alright, I made my obligatory first post in the "Welcome n00bs" section, and now I'm going to seal the deal by posting something I'm sure has been hashed over before but thanks to the above, aformentioned, "n00b" status I can't seem to find anywhere in the search function and seeing's as how I'm not a whiz at legal-ese I figured the best thing to do would be to start a thread that has a really long run on sentence for the first line and then eventually get to the point but not before nearly passing out from a lack of oxyge...
<<deeeeeeeeeeeep breath>>

So I'm new to the state, but not new to silly fishing regs. I grew up in East central Florida so I'm no stranger to the game and fish commission's blatant ability to fine you for some obscure rule you had no idea existed in the fishing license department. Not size limits or legal take amounts, I can figure those out fairly easily once I learn what it is I'm looking at, just fishing license's themselves.
So onward to the question (assuming I haven't lost your interest yet, and if I have mebbe it's time to talk to your doctor about upping your Adderall strength)...
If I'm primarily fishing coastal waters with the occasional jaunt up to a lake or inland river what licensure SHOULD I carry to maintain a good standing with the local Pescatoral Po-Po? Is it necessary to have all the stamps just to be on the safe side or are there things (sturgeon permit?) that I can live without if I have no interest in targeting those species?
Thanks in advance for any replies, sarcasm, or obvious directions to where this has been covered before since I am, or can still otherwise claim I am, a n00b here.
