Title: Catch record card + halibut option???
Post by: NorseNW on March 19, 2023, 07:15:33 AM: Went online to update my license this morning and I can not find the option to purchase a catch record card with halibut. It shows the regular catch record card and even says if you want halibut you need the catch record card + halibut. Tried navigating around several ways and can't get that to come up. Anyone else have this issue or am I just not doing this correctly???

"Thank you for contacting the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife. We are working on the Halibut issue, we are hoping it will be fixed before April 1, 2023"

The 1st isn't the most convenient but I guess you can add it later. Oh well
