Anglers, hunters and other outdoor enthusiasts are reminded that 2004-05 fishing and hunting licenses, as well as vehicle access permits, expire March 31.
New licenses and permits for the 2005-06 season, valid from April 1, 2005 through March 31, 2006, are now available by phone, over the Internet and from hundreds of license dealers.
The rates for annual fishing and hunting licenses remain unchanged from last year. Not counting dealer fees, the resident adult freshwater fishing license is $21.90; saltwater is $19.71; shellfish/seaweed is $10.95; and a combination license is $41.61. A Puget Sound crab endorsement is $3.
Resident hunting licenses vary with package options, ranging from a small-game license at $32.85 to a deer/elk/cougar/bear combination license for $72.27.
Annual licenses include a WDFW vehicle-use permit, which gives the bearer access to more than 600 WDFW recreational access sites throughout the state. Sold separately, the access permit costs $10.95.
Internet users can purchase a license electronically at www.fishhunt.dfw.wa.gov. Only a license holder's Washington Interactive Licensing Database (WILD) identification number (or name and birthdate) is necessary if the individual is currently licensed in the WILD system.
If the person applying is not currently licensed, the purchaser will need to provide the license holder's address, telephone number, Social Security number, height, weight and eye color.
