Ask Fish and Game

Q. Am I going to have to pay because I'm late with my mandatory harvest report? A. Yes, but not this year. Fish and Game has delayed imposing a fee of $1.50 when hunters fail to file their reports on time and the license vendor must file the report by computer before a new license can be issued. The delay will give hunters time to see the rule printed and become familiar with it. The fee is now scheduled to go into effect for 2004. The fee will not, of course, apply to those who have filed their reports in a timely manner. The fee pays the vendor for providing the service.
