Do holders of a Recreational Commercial Gear License need to identify the commercial gear being used recreationally?
A. Yes, gears fished by Recreational Commercial Gear License holders must identify the gear by attaching a hot pink buoy (no less than five inches in length) to the gear. Engraved in the buoy or engraved in a metal or plastic tag attached to the buoy, you must have your last name and initials and one of the following: Owner’s North Carolina motor boat registration number (Wildlife Resources Commission number), or the Owner’s U.S. vessel documentation number.
