Idaho non resident tag quotas for 2021

[ThurstonCokid]

Anyone know how this works with applying for limited hunts? Do you buy your tag and pick your unit then apply? Or?

If you want to be guaranteed a tag if you dont draw controlled you need to buy first. If you draw a controlled hunt they will let you exchange your tag for the controlled tag.

I was wondering the same...was that info on the website? I couldn't find it. 

  This is going to turn a bunch of peoples seasons upside down, by Dec 1st I won't have any idea what is going on for next year..... Idaho used to be the back up if the other draws didn't pan out.

Well maybe if they do this for a year they'll finally realize the overcrowding is more new idaho residents than it is non residents.

No worries there most the folks moving to Idaho don't hunt, are anti hunt or just hate to hunt................ Idaho is in for big changes down the road.

Thats how idaho has always been. You can trade your general tag for a controlled hunt if you draw. You dont need to have a general tag to apply tho.

Can you not hunt general season in Idaho and a controlled hunt like you can in WA?

No in Idaho you draw a tag not a permit like Washington.

[WoolyRunner]

Cant you just buy a whitetail only tag? Thats what my 2 buddies at work do.

So do you guys think everything will sell out dec 1 anyways? Or will these changes give you time to think about it?  I liked it much better when Idaho was a great back up, miss those days.

I don't think it will all sell out immediately, but some f the areas will go fast, Idaho was always a back up but we always ended up there.
This is going to suck, but I can't disagree something had to be done with the crowding...

The problem with crowding is the resident population explosion!

so since the quotas are the same for non Rez, will there be any difference in the amount of pressure since residence don’t have quotas ?

[highside74]

They took the average number of res hunter per unit and limited the non res tags to 15% of that number if it was 15% or more on average for non res. If the non res participants were 10 percent or less they made those units have 10% limit. Some units had way more non res than other by a lot so this will not be the case going forward. Some place it says non res will be cut by more than 50% when it goes to 15% allotment.

Did anyone notice that there is only 9806 tags available for elk if you add them up?  Therefore the quota of 12,800 is actually a joke because there isn’t enough tags available to reach that number.

But don’t worry if your an Idaho resident because at the new price of $651/elk tag they only need to sell 8,190 tags to make as much money as they made off of non resident elk as they did last year.

Wonder how the outfitter allocation comes into play?
