Recreational anglers in Rhode Island now have a faster and easier way to obtain freshwater fishing licenses, thanks to a new service available through the state's official Web site (www.RI.gov).

Among the freshwater fishing licenses available online are the Rhode Island resident license ($18), non-resident license ($35), tourist three-day license ($16), and two-week, non-resident shellfish license ($11). Individuals may also use the Internet to purchase a trout conservation stamp ($5.50), which is also required of anyone wishing to keep or possess a trout or to fish in a catch-and-release or "fly-fishing only" area.
