It's been a while since I read the details on this, but here's what I think I remember. For every $1 that the DWR raises in license fees, the federal gvmt gives them something like $3. This money goes straight to the dwr and not into the general fund? Along with this the dwr is renaming the small-game license to a hunting license, and requiring those purchasing a hunting permit to first have a small-game license. This will require the resident & out of state applicants to contribute something to the dwr before being granted the opportunity hunt here. Again, the federal gvmt matches the money for the license. That's what I think I remember. Take it for what it's worth, knowing that it's been a couple of months.
I think this is really good, and if you really think about it, even if you only went fishing a couple of times, what percentage of the cost of a fishing trip would that $5 represent.
