Boat inspections in California is just another tax.
I used to take off for a month of fishing lakes the many lakes in California. In a month I would fish 10-20 lakes.
Now, with all the inspections, it could cost you up to $1000 for inspections if you visit many lakes.Some lakes will accept inspections(stickers) from other lakes, but many will not.
I now fish only lakes in Oregon. I pay a little over $20 for permit when I buy my fishing license and I am done. I can fish as many lakes as I like and my initial fee ($20+) is all I pay.In California I nickle and dimed to death.
California also instituted a $16 mussel fee on your boat license in addition to all the individual lake inspection fees.
It is much cheaper for me to drive the 1200 mile round trip to fish in Oregon than to fish in my own state.
I have never had a boat inspection in Oregon.So far they only ask to see that I have paid the inspection fee on my fishing license.
The only saving grace(so far), is that I have never seen an inspection or fee on California's rivers, but I still have to pay the $16 fee on my boat license.
