Multi Season Permit

[BLKBEARKLR]

Trophyhunt, thanks for the information and the update. Good info to have.

I tried last year with my wife and I to apply and they had said no it was an individual permit, so glad to see they changed it.


Thanks
Joe

You bet, i'm glad to see the change myself. Good luck, i have the max points so i'm hoping i get drawn this year.

Whats is max points for multiseason permits?

[rackattack]

I believe 4 points is the maximum right now.

 I purchased the permit and it would not give me the option to add a partner. Has the system not been updated to allow a partner?

[bobcat]

Maybe it's not an option this year, since that is just something new in the proposal, which hasn't even been approved yet.

I applied about 3 weeks ago and it asked me to pick the usual choices, Individual, group member or group leader. So if you didn't get the choice, i would call Cody at the fish and game dept.

When is the drawing for the multi season tag ?If you get a multi season elk tag, could you hunt east side archery and west side modern firearm ?

[trophyhunt]

The deadline is the 31st, i believe it doesn't allow you to hunt both sides, but it does allow you to apply for east and west side special permits!!!! which is worth the price of the tag in itself.

The deadline is March 31st.

You can hunt east/west archery,muzzle and modern. Also you can put in for east/westside special permits.

Now I have an issue,...I am broke and unemployed, so I wanted to go with the point only option and get a point instaed of entering the draw....
When I was on-line it did not give me that option, only the 2888-MULTI SEASON ELK, so I called the WDFW lisencing division, and the lady on the phone had to go ask someone.
When she came back she told me to submit the choice provided in the box

and she insisted that I was automatically entered into drawing and if I submitted on-line the ONLY HUNT CHOICE available, that it was the points option!
I asked her to repeat it several times and told her that made no sense, but she insisted, so I followed her advice....
I am sure she is wrong and now (because I cannot afford it) I will probably get drawn 
NEVER FOLLOW ADVICE FROM THE IDIOTS THAT WORK AT THE WDFW !!!!!
I should have just not applied, but I want the point.

It sounds like quite a few people who bought the multi season tag also got on line and put in for the tag on the wdf web site. If the did and put in for the only hunt the wdf had listed does that mean that they put themselves in for points only. Hope not cause thats what I did.

after you buy the application you have to go in and submit your application this year. At this point you'll have to choose individual, group leader or group member. I just helped a co-worker through this last night on both the deer and elk m/s applications he bought.
I started a different thread with a warning about this here:

There has never been a point only option for a multiseason permit...

last year you did not have to submit the application, it happened automatically, and there was only an individual permit option....
just a heads up to all!!! fair warning!!

Just spoke with Cody at the WDFW and he said that if you bought your multi season tag you are already submitted. He also said if you then submitted online, it will not affect anything. He said they are going to cross reference the apps with the online submitting. From the sound of his voice, he has got a few calls asking the same question!
