Put in! Your area an mine if ya get drawn up here I'll take ya out.  :)
Hunting and Fishing is not what I do. But who I am...

i knew there was a fee but am unaware of how much it is.

Well the year round pass is over $300 but that was sold out about two months ago

They (Hancock Forest Managment) are offering a temp pass that is only valid during the bear hunt for $100

I really wish people would research their areas before submitting apps because many people who get selected for these fee areas don't use their permit because of the fee and those of us willing to pay the fee lose out...

What meeting? They are having a meeting the 12th and 13th to discuss the new proposed special permit system and other things. Is that the meeting you're talking about?  

Then they are supposed to make the decision about a month later at the next commisioner's meeting whether to accept the proposal or not. So I'd say we're looking at a minimum of 6 weeks before applications will be up for sale. (notice I said "applications."  I wish I could purchase a special permit but all we can buy is the applications)    ;)

Yep, giving it a go again.  Hopefully luckier than the past few years on drawing.

Just bought the bonus point.  I looked at the hunts, and I didn't realize that there wasn't a GMU supporting Spring Bear closer to my home.  Looks like I'll have to plan for it next year (or maybe the next).

I'll be up there chasing them in the fall, though.
If you don't stand behind the troops, please feel free to stand in front of us.

I finally put in my Spring App for Bear yesterday over the phone.  Kinda hope I get drawn now.  Got 3 points going in.  Havn't drawn anything for 3 years.  I should draw something this year.

I thought I put my spring bear in the other day but apparently niether the internet nor the telepnone was working properly. I tried the internet first and it obviously did not work. I then tried the phone automated system which appeared to work fine. I even got a confirmation number. I got a message left on my answering machine yeasterday stating that my permit was submitted when they were having problems but none of my hunt choices were recorded. They left a message that I called a few minutes ago and supposedly they took care of it. :bash: :bash:

I put in the N Skagit since it's close to home.
