We were told today not to expect any license increases in Indiana for a few years.

Meanwhile in Wyoming….www.jhguide.com/article.php?art_id=683Hunting fee hike heads to capitol By Noah Brenner July 14, 2006 A proposal to increase hunting and fishing licenses by 20 percent has passed through committee and will be introduced as a bill in the upcoming legislative session. The increase would increase the cost of a resident fishing license from $18 to $22 and the required conservation stamp from $10 to $12. Resident antelope, deer and elk tags would increase by $5, $6, and $8 respectively to $31, $36 and $50. Non-residents also will feel the pinch as their licenses for antelope, deer and elk will increase by $45, $50 and $90 respectively and fishing licenses will increase from $75 to $90. If passed by the legislature, the proposed increases will go into effect in 2008. Wyoming Game and Fish Director Terry Cleveland defended the increases by saying that the agency is simply trying to keep up with funding shortfalls caused by inflation. “Hunters and anglers have to realize that our inflation costs are going up just like theirs,” he said. “I pay the same price for a gallon of gas as they do. If they expect us to maintain the same level of service they are currently enjoying we either need to raise our fees, find an outside source of funding or both.” In addition to increasing fees, the Joint Travel, Recreation. Wildlife and Cultural Resources Interim Committee directed the Legislative Service Office to investigate a number of bills that would help fund the agency through sources other than licenses.
