This is going to happen on the west side to.  What I am hearing is that it may be a total shutdown soon.

What about hunting private
I think there is general agreement that the actual hunting isn’t the problem. It’s the buying gas, pop, food, and everything else that sometimes goes with it. Walking out your back door for a bird would be like walking down the street to a lake to fish. No problem. Running around to get lures and bait and flies probably isn’t best practice right now

If they close the hunting season all hunting will be closed including private land.

 :yeah:

Fishing isnt open on private
you will not stop me from fishing my brother's private pond.  Just saying

From my understanding a lake that resides entirely within a parcel(s) owned by a single person or couple is considered private and is regulated by said owners. If the boundaries of the lake are connected to multiple parcels owned by multiple individuals, such as a neighborhood on a lake, then WDFW assumes ownership of the lake and requires a liscense to fish it.

No way would they refund tags that then got closed down. Money is the only thing wdfw cares about & they’re not letting go of any of it.

Why would they refund a turkey tag when that tag is good in the fall.  It will suck big time if they close it down but I highly highly doubt they will refund any tags.

Because lets be real, people are buying these tags to hunt the spring, and wdfw knows it. 


And, going off their own regs, you can get a refund with a physicians statement saying you should not hunt.  Id imagine it would be very easy to get your family doctor to emsil a statement instructing you to stay home due to the pandemic.

If you're worried about getting a refund on a $15 tag you probably can't afford to hunt in the first place.

Small game license: $40.59
Turkey tag: $15.90
2nd turkey tag: $15.90
Total: $72.39

But its not the money, its the principal.

Perhaps the best quote of the day.

I’m not worried about the refund. It’s absolutely the principle.. i just know some people, including lots on this forum will be sending an email/phone calls if it comes down to it.

Exactly what I’d anticipate. Which is completely understandable
