My NSW fishing licence was about to run out so I decided to go online (www.dpi.nsw.gov.au), and renew my licence there. There's an advantage of doing it online in that your license arrives in the form of a credit card sized, waterproof plastic card, which is clearly a much better option (especially for yak fishoes) than the paper printed variety, which is what you'll get if you buy from a retail outlet. The only exception to this is when you buy a 3 yr licence, in which you are issued a temporary paper version and a plastic card arrives in the mail a week or so later.
Buying online you can pay four or five different ways, such as credit card, b-pay and so on. Within a week of paying I received my new licence in the mail. Finally no flimsy piece of paper in a dodgy plastic bag, which is unreadable as soon as it gets wet. So if you have to renew your licence do it online (or otherwise buy a 3 year permit) and get one of the cards. It's worth it.
