He will be in the resident allocation pool and wont have to purchase a license but the tags will carry the NR pricing.. He will only have to buy tags and even if he chooses to switch residency to another state (maybe college) he still gets resident pricing in Idaho for life.
really? I must have misread that one. thxHe will be in the resident allocation pool and wont have to purchase a license but the tags will carry the NR pricing.
I could be wrong as well, its been 11 years since I looked at it but that is what I remember it being.really? I must have misread that one. thx
no worries, it's been 8 years for me. Makes sense, usually when things seem to good to be true they are. edited my original as to not spread misinformation.I could be wrong as well, its been 11 years since I looked at it but that is what I remember it being.
i should look into that. ive had my life time since 1991 and thought most of that stuff was grandfathered in. then again in dont get to the NC coast to oftenFor me it depends on the state and what it includes. If I can get all my tags every year I will buy one...I have WV and NC, got both as a R before I moved. I dont have one here in SC because last time I checked it didn't include big game, deer and turkey, or salt water. Just small game and freshwater fishing...what's the point of getting a lifetime license if I still have to go in every year and buy big game license. So I do the 3 yr combo license here in SC, they include big game.
Another word of warning like most laws it can be changed with the stroke of a pen...when I got my NC lifetime license you didn't need a saltwater recreation fishing license, wasnt required didnt exist...about 7 or so yrs after my purchase they implemented a saltwater license and did not make retro active...so now I have to buy a 10 day NR saltwater fishing license everytime I fish the NC coast, but I still get a bear tag every year so it works out.
Dad bought me one as an infant in my home state- 200$. Has payed for itself multiple times over- and will really come in handy if ever move away.
It may depend on the state- but I believe mine does.Saw this and realized that if I moved out of state my license would still be good. Great to know. I always thought that if I moved I would have to apply as a non-resident.
I checked mine in SC and it does as well.It may depend on the state- but I believe mine does.
In Arizona, if I ever leave the state(I never will),I’d still be in the resident pool during the draw, but would have to pay the NR price if I draw a tag.Are all these states lifetime license good if you become a resident of another state? I had a lifetime license in Iowa and was told that it would not be honored when I left.
My wife got me one in Indiana for our 5th anniversary, in 1998, and I haven't had to pay for a deer or turkey tag since. best $525 ever...
