Generally, fishing without a license does not constitute jail time. Usually a citation and a fine is sufficient, fine amounts will vary depending on location and/or amount of offenses. It is really doubtful that any state (or country) that I know of will hand out jail time for such a minor offense.

About the only area I could see where such an offense might constitute jail time is if the offender is fishing and/or keeping protected game, or using illegal methods to do the fishing.

It varies state to state.

For example, in Pennsylvania, the base fine is $50 plus twice the amount of the license. They also charge for each fish you caught.

Consult your state's Department of Fish and Wildlife of Department of Natural Resources for more information.
I believe the fine for fishing without a liscense is $50 a fish but dont quote me on that!
