All I know is that you get a visitor or resident license here in TN. Then residents over 55, and under 12 can fish without a license in TN.
Be a great idea for the ATC to work with the states on a fishing permit for hikers.

According to the Pa. Fish and Game Commission: You don't need a PA fishing license at all, if you are totally blind, or have such severe physical or mental impairments that they are unable to cast or retrieve a line or bait hooks and remove fish if only one legal device is used and they are within 10 feet of the device being used. The attendant of the blind or impaired person also does not need a license while assisting in using the device.
As for that AT permit -- that is a great idea.
