Except as provided by W.S. 23-2-209, no person fourteen (14)
years or older nor any nonresident person less than fourteen
(14) years shall fish in or on any Wyoming waters, except a
catch-out pond located on a licensed fish hatchery or a fishing
preserve, without first obtaining a proper license. A
nonresident person less than fourteen (14) years need not obtain

nonresident person's bag limit as established by law or by
commission orders shall be applied to and limited by the fishing
license held by the adult person in his company.
