How to make a usermod for usermod -a -G wireshark _your_username_ to work

Using Wireshark on Fedora and when running it, I get "Couldn't run /usr/bin/dumpcap in child process: Permission denied Are you a member of the 'wireshark' group? Try running 'usermod -a -G wireshark _your_username_' as root."
