I recently obtained a free boat trailer from a friend (legally) but he does not have any registration papers for it. Does anyone know if I can get a license plate for this trailer without any registration papers.

Was it this fish? I have heard about them before, never caught one and honestly don't want to. Hope your hand gets better, a friend of mine had that happen years back and it took a couple of days for that pain to go away.
