how do i sell fish online

[ksb070279]

Some friends and I are starting to learn how to sell fish that we catch here in P.C. Fl. Can anyone help me.

not sure, but that may be illegal to sell wild animals or something. (plus you probably shouldnt be catching them from their habitats) AQUACULTURE w00+ but basically you advertize that you have a fish... and then have someone send money to a paypal acount that you will open.

More then likely you will need a business license to ship them any where. Just to CYA. Here in Bay county you just need to go to the court house and get a tax ID in most cases you dont meed any kinda of business license unless required by the city you live in. Lynn Haven dose, and I think Parker. But ya check for local restrictions.

hm you probably will need to talk to someone about the taking the fish from the wild but on shipping i always thought of doing a half water half air and also put like a hot/cold pack in it so it'd stay around 75f or so anyways if it is legal i might think about buying from you if your cheaper then my LFS XD good luck with the legal stuff

there are collection restrictions...you need a liscence in florida

 

[saltwater4life]

where did you find that out?

I know that Bay County, which Panama City is located in, Dose not require you to have business license, you just need a Tax ID, and rememebr to pay your taxes. I would start by asking the FWC (Fish and Wildlife Commission) they would know what the restrictions would be, and if you need a license.

No you need a liscence to collect tropical fish, at least in the keys you do. I am not sure about the rest of florida, my next door neighbor has a collectors liscence.
