Lemme ask this, is the bay considered saltwater or freshwater for the purpose of fishing licences?
Could be either. If you are a non-resident of FL, I believe the 3 day and 7 day licenses are for either salt water or freshwater fishing (separate licenses), but please double check that with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission to insure the accuracy. For residents, we have options of a saltwater license, freshwater license, or a combo fresh and saltwater.
The Bay has a mixed water, consisting of both fresh water and saltwater. There are creeks and rivers (fresh water) which feed into the Bay which opens into the Gulf (salt water). As I understand it, rather than trying to create boundaries of fresh and salt waters, and for reasons of making it easier to police, the gov't makes it easy. If you catch a fresh water fish in salt water, when having only a salt water license, you have to release the fresh water fish, and vice versa.
Please read through the link above to learn more. You can even purchase your license online, but since they charge a couple of $$ for a service charge, you will find the same price at the local shops like YellowFin Sports mentioned above. If you are going to buy your bait at YellowFin, go ahead and get your license there, too.
