Lifetime licsence question

i believe he would have to buy the lifetime small game, and if he deer hunted the lifetime firearms or archery deer license. I think if you already possess them, and then move out of state you can still come back and hunt/fish without having to pony up for the out-of-state license fees.

Yes he can buy a lifetime license now and hunt MN. after he moves. One of my hunting partners did that before he moved to SD. You have to prove your a MN resident at the time of purchase. Each year he will have to pick up a MN license for that season, but it's been prepaid.

I bought a lifetime fishing license before I moved to WI (now I've moved back), but while I was a WI resident I didn't have to pay anything. And you don't have to show an ID. They gave me a hard plastic card that I could present or I just always gave them my license from last year (with the DNR number) and it would just come up as lifetime with no charge.

BG is correct.

Since i just moved to Fargo, I just got my lifetime sportsman, archery and rifle this past week.

Just send them the check and they mail out a credit card type deal that you present to the dealer when you pick up your license/buy your stamps.

I don't know about whether you can buy it and move out of state and still use it, but I've had a lifetime sportsmen's license for about 5 years. You have to go and get the free HIP certification every year and buy and stamps you need. I haven't tried but you may even be able to do it on line.

It is slick and really makes for a hassle free time and no worries about 'now when does the fishing license expire?'

we had a situation close to that with Adam Vinetari (the place kicker for the Colts) a few years ago. He owned a home with his parents here in Rapid City. However, being that his place of employment and domicle was out of state, he was denied applying for a South Dakota resident elk license. I guess a guy should read the laws/rules on that or talk with the authority. but, the rule here reads, "However, a person who has lawfully acquired a resident hunting, fishing, trapping license and who leaves the state after acquiring the license to take up residency elsewhere MAY continue to excercise all the priviledges granted by the license until it expires if the person's respective priviledges are not revoked or suspended". But, we don't have a lifetime license. Another provision we have is if a land owner leases out his property and lives in another state he CAN NOT buy a resident license. I guess some of these rules are sticky.

So how about this scenario. In MN as a resident you can hunt bobcats with a normal small game license. If you are a non-resident you need a small game license AND a furbearers permit. So if I bought a lifetime small game license, and then moved out of state would I be able to still hunt bobcats on my small game license or would I have to buy furbearers permit to go with it.

I would lean towards not needing a furbearer permit, only because your small game license would say "Resident Lifetime". You dont have to prove to a officer that where you live at that point (in the field). But thats just my guess, best would be to ask the DNR.

I emailed the DNR and asked the question the answer was as long as a lifetime license was purchased as Mn resident it is valid no matter where you move.

Also, for any of you with young kids, I think the cutoff date before the licenses go up in price is before the kids turns 5. I just missed on my Grandson, so now can wait until he is about 15 before deciding to get one for him. I wish I would have gotten mine long ago, but still will, maybe if any stimulus $$ comes our way wink

Box, you can't possibly have grandkids yet, can you??

Hehe, yep, 5, with oldest being 11. Technically, they are step-Grandkids, but Grandkids just the same smile My wife is 10 years older than me... that cougar wink

Paul,

Lifetime license prices vary. I bought my sportsmans, archery and rifle licenses and I paid around $1750 for the three. I am moving to ND here soon so that's why I did this.

By doing this before I move to ND, the licenses will be paid for in just over 4 yrs. If i were to stay a MN resident, they would pay for themselves in just over 20 yrs. (at current prices)

As for the Bobcat question, I would think you're going to have to buy everything a non-resident has to buy.

just out of curiosity, how much is that lifetime license?

The cost varies depending on your age. You have to do a little figuring to determine if it's likely to pay for itself in your hunting lifetime and then you have to factor in possible license increases you would incure if you just bought a non-resident license.

    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
