Guess $10 isn't too bad. I see $15 for non-res, what is the fee for the regular tag for nrs?

[DonBo]

$65.25 including stamp. Worth every penny.

[DonBo]

So, who got one today??? How did it go? Was such a mess last year I'm hoping they get it all figured out before I try for mine on Thursday.

[Cooter]

I see it shouldn't be a problem getting a 5th or 6th season(E and F) tag for zone 4.

Don - how many you gonna buy? One a day - could have a pocketfull of tags!

[DonBo]

LOL, probably just the one. Already have one, plus my MN tag. Don't want to seem tooooooooooo greedy!

[DonBo]

Zone 2 up today. Any takers on those permits?

[DonBo]

Almost 25,000 permits up for grabs today in zone 3. Good luck!

[DonBo]

8,761 permits up for grabs in Zone 4 today...oops, 8,760. I already got mine.

[DonBo]

Zone 5 today! Good luck.

There's still lots of permits available in zones 1 & 3, and a few left in zone 4. Remember, you can buy 1 per day till they're gone.

[Cooter]

Only a few left in 4? I better get on it!

[DonBo]

Only a few left in 4? I better get on it!

So Cooter, did you score an extra today??? Still 1300+ left for the last season.

[Cooter]

I'm too late, tags for unit 5 was the only option

[DonBo]

Ha! Better you than me.

[Cooter]

That might put a dent in the overall harvest numbers!
