Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: April 7, 2026

Amazon Associates Program Disclosure

FishKillFlea.com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.

As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.

This means that when you click on certain product links on our website and make a purchase on Amazon.com, we may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you. This commission helps us maintain and improve FishKillFlea.com, keeping our fishing license guides free and up to date for all 50 US states.

  1. You browse our site and see a product recommendation (e.g., fishing rods, reels, tackle, or apparel).
  2. You click the product link, which redirects you to Amazon.com with our affiliate tracking tag.
  3. If you make a purchase within 24 hours of clicking, we may earn a small commission (typically 1-10% depending on the product category).
  4. You pay the same price — our commission comes from Amazon, not from you. There is absolutely no additional cost to you.

Affiliate product recommendations may appear on:

  • State fishing license pages — gear recommendations relevant to each state’s fishing opportunities
  • Fishing guide articles — product suggestions related to the guide topic
  • Blog posts — relevant gear and tackle recommendations
  • Subpages — such as cost guides, how-to-get pages, and fishing spot guides

All pages containing affiliate links include a visible disclosure statement near the product recommendations.

Our Editorial Independence

We want to be completely transparent about our relationship with Amazon:

  • Our fishing license information is 100% independent. Affiliate relationships have zero influence on the license fees, regulations, or requirements we report. This data comes directly from official state wildlife agencies.
  • Product recommendations are based on merit. We recommend products that we believe are genuinely useful to anglers based on research, reviews, and industry reputation.
  • We do not accept payment for positive reviews. Our product descriptions are honest and factual.
  • Not all products on our site are affiliate links. Links to official state wildlife agency websites, government portals, and regulatory resources are never affiliate links.

Your Choices

You are never obligated to use our affiliate links. You can:

  • Navigate directly to Amazon.com and search for any product yourself.
  • Purchase from any retailer of your choosing — we only link to Amazon for convenience.
  • Use browser extensions that block affiliate tracking if you prefer.
  • Simply enjoy our free content without clicking any product links.

Important Disclaimers

  • Prices shown are approximate and may not reflect the current Amazon price. Always verify the final price on Amazon.com before purchasing.
  • Product availability varies and is determined by Amazon, not by us.
  • We are not responsible for Amazon’s shipping, returns, customer service, or product quality policies.
  • Amazon, the Amazon logo, and Amazon.com are trademarks of Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates.

FTC Compliance

This disclosure is provided in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255). We believe in full transparency about our affiliate relationships.
