The revenue data's on the link he posted.

$5,011,856.00 is the revenue from the MS sales. $1,417,946.00 of which non resident. I'm not clear on the point of the post other than to show a lot of folks buy licenses. Hundreds of lakes to fish and I assume this includes sales for saltwater as well.

I suspect most don't get a whole lot of fishing in a 365 day year but springs always going to be the busy time mainly because of the weather.

But the numbers are interesting to me mainly to show how much $$$ is brought into states from those living outside Think how much $$$ is brought to the state buying gas, food, lodging, etc. etc. and adding/keeping jobs.

Personally, I probably saw fewer fishermen at Sardis this year in a while because high water scared a lot of folks away.
