Just find the appropriate phone number on the list in the link
i got my license at walmart and its they will replace it for 9 bucks if i lose it.
Here's what happened for me. I called one of the numbers that LOLLY gave above and it was a good thing I did. I got mine at Sport Chalet and I should have been able to just go get a new one for $9 bucks. But I called the DFG and they looked up my license and for some reason there was a problem with it and they weren't allowed to make a duplicate of my license. WTF? Anyway, they had to call Sacramento and get the authorization to make a duplicate for my license (again, WTF?) and then I had to drive down to Los Alamitos and pick up my license in person. They could have mailed it to me but I needed it before then. I think one of the kids at Sport Chalet did something wrong and that's why my license wasn't authorized to print a duplicate.
Wow, that's some BS. Good thing you have it now. Post a report after your fishing trip.Quote:

Since they are all now computerized and based on your CA Driver's Lic., you should, in theory anyway, be able to go to ANY place that sells the licenses and do whatever you need to do ...
Evidently the kid that sold it to you DID do something wrong ... I was in and out in less that three minutes!
