There is No discount on anything listed.
Just rubbing it in that other states do it and they dont give us a break on anything. :(

Post by: Rigby416 on May 02, 2024, 06:37:44 PM: I've checked at various places, no printed regs anywhere yet.

May 10th.

I understand Regs are online, but putting out paper Regs 5 days before special permits are due is bad form.
Title: Re: Regs are out
Post by: JWBINX on May 03, 2024, 06:28:28 AM: It's total BS!
When I spoke to WDFW, they mentioned the delay is because of the cougar decisions
being made.

Post by: sidehil on May 04, 2024, 06:03:39 PM: Just spoke with Silverdale Sports and they can’t even order the paper ones,what a total *censored* show WA has become, raised here, hunt and killed lots of game but I like a paper copy in hand..

Post by: DeerThug on May 04, 2024, 06:58:44 PM: There are none around Yakima. Guess have to suck it up and struggle through a slow internet to figure it out.

Seems to fit with the anit-hunting bent they have

Post by: millerwheeler on May 05, 2024, 08:00:16 AM: Paper regs should be In stores by end of week

Title: Re: Regs are out
Post by: hoffmas56 on May 05, 2024, 11:13:57 AM: Pretty pathetic, all the other western states have their regulations out by January, and Washington still has no paper copies available 10 days before special permit deadline. I contacted my area house representative, since he is a sportsman, and can maybe influence the process. Sad situation, and will probably impact permit sales and revenue, which won't help the way this state manages. :bash:

Well that is a bit of good news.
Title: Re: Regs are out
Post by: BreezyBear on May 06, 2024, 02:30:02 PM: To submit your hunt choices for special applications, you must be on the WDFW website anyway, which also has all the hunt numbers and dates. You don't have to have a paper copy to accomplish this, even though we all would prefer it. All this means is that we will have to wait even longer for results to come out. :bash:
Title: Re: Regs are out
Post by: time2hunt on May 06, 2024, 03:43:58 PM: It works out for a lot of people that do out of state hunts. Idaho OIL draws and Utah deer and elk should be posted by then.

:yeah:
I generally dislike extensions and don't think there was a need here, that said, the silver lining is we should know UT deer/elk, WY Elk, etc...I hope those results change my WA apps :chuckle:

Post by: millerwheeler on May 06, 2024, 04:44:42 PM: There was no need for an extension, if you all don’t think they’ll be 100% online and no book eventually you got another thing coming. We are all on our phone/ computers anyway (don’t act like your not) head to the local library and print it if you can’t muster up the heart burn to read it on your phone.

Just print the pages you need to support your drug habit.

Great point I didn’t do it just saying options are there. One of the guys at work printed them out and laminated them! In full I was like Man U love that book of disappointment lol

No, WDFW can put out paper Regs in a timely manner. Every other state does.

Title: Re: Regs are out
Post by: ghosthunter on May 14, 2024, 11:15:53 AM: I went in to Holiday Sports in Burlington to by Permit apps. The old guy had them behind the counter. My 22 year old grandson was with me.

The old guy said he had instructions to only give us one copy because we were together and should share. We don’t live together. I insisted on my own copy. We each paid with our own money ,we should each get one copy. He balked until I told him my next stop was the owners desk.

If the state is so worried they can put a box to check that you got your copy. I think it was a store policy. I paid my cash I want one copy. :beatdeadhorse: :mgun2:
