MA fishing license question

[Skylineracer329]

Searched here, searched the state sites, can't find anything. Going fishing tomorrow, my father wants to come watch. Not to fish, just to hang out. For some reason I remember hearing that he'd still need a license regardless. Is that true?

No he does not just don't have him handle any of the gear

exactly he can sit back and enjoy, just don't let him touch the fishing pole.

If he is over 60 he gets a free license. You just have to pay the processing fee

That's 70 or over http://www.mass.gov/eea/agencies/dfg/licensing/license-types-and-fees.html

Sixty is for the salt water permit.
