Now read carefully. I do not know if you can buy two license in a single year. I am betting that you can.
Also, I do not think the license exempts us from the daily fee at all lakes.
Once 65 you pay no fees at agency lakes. It is in TN Fishing Guide.

and you don't have to purchased a trout stamp either.

I was giving my mom grief about this last week. The "old retired" people who fish all the time and use the heck out of the resource don't have to pay for it like us still working folks that don't get to fish much. Something not quite right about that...

Many of us never make 65 and many that do are no longer capable to use the permanent license. You appear a little short sided with comment and I take offense for myself and others of my generation.

I think the comment was in jest. If not, I would remind the younger generation that those 65 and older paved the rough roads so that the younger generation could have a smoother ride.
