addition to those enumerated in Section 50-17-410. Each person engaged in buying, bartering, or handling
fresh saltwater fish or fisheries products for the purpose of resale at other than retail, whether handled on a
commission basis or otherwise, or shipping them out of the State on consignment or order is considered a
wholesale dealer. Any fisherman who sells his catch to wholesale dealers licensed under this section must
obtain from the Division an individual land and sell license, the fee for which is twenty-five dollars. This
license is not required of persons licensed under Section 50-17-330. Any person who takes saltwater fish and
sells his catch to other than a licensed wholesale dealer is considered a wholesale dealer himself."
