Thank you for your question. Here is what the Kentucky fishing guide has to say concerning a KY license. BIG SANDY and TUG FORK RIVERS Anglers with a valid Kentucky fishing license may fish the entire main stem of the Big Sandy and Tug Fork rivers from the confluence of the Ohio and Big Sandy Rivers upstream to the Virginia state line. Kentucky anglers can fish from a boat or on West Virginia’s bank without buying a West Virginia fishing license. This does not apply to fishing West Virginia’s tributaries or embayments, which begin at a straight line between opposite points where the tributary or embayment meets the main stem of the river. Kentucky anglers fishing from West Virginia’s bank must follow their size and creel limits. However, Kentucky anglers fishing the main stem from a boat must follow Kentucky’s size and creel limits. Please check with West Virginia's fishing regulations if you hold a WV fishing license.

Super production and history. Thanks
Got a question. Since the River flows between the two States. Which Fishing License would you need? WV or KY?
