Wi spring hunt dates?

[fmhoyt]

Has anyone seen the season dates yet for Wisconsin's spring hunt. The deadline is Dec. 10 the for the drawing. I have not been able to find anything yet.

I just looked yesterday and did not see anything for MN or WI. I know MN is finishing up some survey so you will see changes in 2016 but nothing really big for 2015 spring.

WI permist I could not find when they were do either on the site. I'm thinking next week we might see something released for WI

Thanks Hoyt4 . Wanted to make sure I was not missing it somewhere.

I'm all signed up. Boy, I tell ya, the WI DNR site is sure more difficult to navigate than the MN one.

Here's some tips for non-residents applying in Wisconsin:

First off, residents get first pick. Period. Non-residents will never draw for the first time period, no matter how many preference points you may have. Ever. This is also mostly true of the second time period, however some have drawn for this, but not very many.

IF you choose more than one time period, you will draw the latest one you listed - EVERY SINGLE TIME.

So, if you want to draw an earlier time, period 3 is your best best. It is the Wisconsin fishing opener and very few residents will choose this time period because of that. Just remember, choose this time period only. IF for some reason you don't draw, you will probably be able to purchase permits for later times over the counter at a later date.

Me? I applied for the 4th period. We've been snowed out earlier the last two seasons.

Also, for whatever reason, we've had better luck in our area later in the year. We probably should have applied later yet, but don't want to spoil TOO much of my fishing season.

Hope this help. Good luck all!

The fishing can wait when your chasing turkeys.

We apply for season E and have very good luck this season in our area. I found some tricks for trying to get earlier season also apply with a resident it seems to help getting an early tag.

Spring will no come fast enough , Ice fishing should help get me through the drought of turkey season. Going to the ice show tomorrow see what i can buy.

I may have asked this in the past, but is WI a fairly easy state to hunt for turkeys, as far as public land goes?

I have never hunted WI for anything before, but turkeys seems to be my gateway into checking out new states. I typically start on public and then try to make a few connections.

Is WI fairly conducive to that style of hunting?
