Get your license before prices increase!
Posted by Michael Strahan on Nov 18 2005
AKHunter45,

It looks like the reason why your information and mine are different is because the FISHING license fees have seen some increases, but not HUNTING; at least, not yet.  Here’s what you have, and how it compares to last year’s license fees:

1.  Resident SportFish $24 (last year’s was $15)

2.  Hunting $25 (this is the same as last year, but proposal is $50)

3.  Combo $48 (last year’s was $39.  Looks like the hunting increases haven’t been added in yet.)

4.  Combo+trap $62 (last year’s was $53; looks like the hunting increases haven’t been added in yet)

5.  Hunt+trap $39 (this is the same as last year; I haven’t found the proposed increase for this license, but suspect that as with the other hunting licenses, the increases haven’t been added in yet.)

6.  Trap $15 (again, this is the same as last year’s fee.  Will it increase this year?  I don’t think that’s out yet.)

So in short, I believe we will see some increases in hunting licenses and tags, but I don’t believe those increases have been posted anywhere yet.  That's why your numbers are different from the ones I posted.

GET IT NOW!

Word to the wise; if you haven’t purchased your 2006-07 hunting license yet, do it now, before the rates go up!  I believe you can do this right now, but if you wait until later, you’ll probably pay the higher fee.  Regrettably, this doesn’t apply for locking tags for non residents, because you cannot purchase those yet.  But I believe resident and non-resident hunters can purchase their 06-07 license online right now.  Check it out!  Here's the link to online license purchases:

Hope this brings some clarity to the situation!
