2006 Licenses Available

Resident and nonresident hunting and fishing licenses for 2006 are available now. The new licenses went on sale December 1. Hunters and anglers can pay all fees for the year, but residents who pay for big game tags will be issued a receipt for those tags which are redeemed once resident tags go on sale August 1. Idaho fees for 2006 are the same as for 2005. Purchases can be made through any of more than 400 license vendors statewide, at Fish and Game offices, or with the use of a credit card over the phone or Internet. Contractors who handle credit card sales charge a convenience fee. The toll-free phone number is 1-800-554-8685 and the Internet address is http://fishandgame.idaho.gov. Nonresident Selway B elk tags are sold out for the year already, but tags for the other zones remain available.
