    Depends on where at Pickwick you are fishing.. There is a number of reciprocal agreements in place, that vary by location. North end from Dam to Mouth of Bear creek is covered by agreement between Al. Tn & Ms. and either will work. South of there gets covered pretty good by Al/Ms. agreement. Google it and take peek.. Al license may be most useful overall? And a lot of good Pickwick fishing is covered only in Alabama Water? Going to be hard to say as a co-angler?

    You will want to get an Alabama license. It will cover all of Pickwick Lake. The only place it doesn't cover is west of highway 25 in Mississippi.
