Yes - and not only a license but four years of piloting school, too. I’m just messing with you. No, piloting a drone doesn’t generally come with any additional paperwork. However, you should be aware that drones weighing more than 0.55 pounds do need to be registered with the FAA.  And as it turns out, most drones for fishing weigh a lot more than that.  While we’re at it, beware of the no-fly zones.  There are some areas throughout the US where drones are forbidden. These so-called no-fly zones are determined by the Federal Aviation Authority and typically include airports, security zones, and stadiums during sporting events.  My advice is to check local and federal laws before going airborne.
