Ask Fish and Game: General Season Tags

idfg-mcoleman
Q. I'm a resident, and I didn't draw in any controlled hunt; when can I pick up a general season tag? A. The elk, deer and pronghorn controlled hunt drawings are done and resident tags are available now. The number of resident general deer tags is unlimited, and most general elk tags are unlimited. Resident tags for elk zones subject to a quota go on sale Wednesday, July 10. For a list of resident quota elk tags available go to http://fishandgame.idaho.gov/public/licenses/?getPage=76. For nonresident tags, go to http://fishandgame.idaho.gov/public/licenses/?getPage=75. Hunters also have a second chance at leftover and unclaimed controlled hunt tags. The application period is from August 5 to 15 for the second drawing on August 20.
