I'm also very upset about this. it cost as much to hunt in CT with a gun for deer as it would cost to hunt out west for elk.
135 licenses
50 deer permit.
this is a lot for one week of hunting.
they (the state of CT)don't understand that most Non-Resident can drive to new york,vermont,and new hampshire.
there are longer gun and bow season more deer tages and lower cost.
good luck
sean

I have not been stopped and asked for my license in the almost 20 years I have been bow hunt CT. I am thinking a $50 fine is cheaper than the $200 non res. bow license. When they went to the printed license and tags it really looks like they don't care about hunting at all.
It is all a tax. We really need another Tea Party like the one in Boston years back. Everybody save a gut pile and we can bring to the capital.

That not a good line of thinking. first it is not 50 dollar fine for hunting with a licenses. you are forgetting the weekend in jail.
the State DEP is paying for short fall by raising fees.
The other problem is that out of state hunter have a much high rate of killing deer. what is going to happen to the number of deer killed ever year when out of state hunter stop coming.
I'm going to call the DEP today and ask them about it.

We called the DEP yesterday, they said to call the state.
They don't lock you up for taking one of the kings deer. They don't even care.

I'm also having a little trouble. A person that i know up there that i can not say there name, fells(and this is only their felling) that because of the short fall in the state budget that if the DEP has to make up the short fall.. it is not just they are getting less for the state there are less hunters ever year. now we all know that there are many reason for this.
I fell that one of the reason is the harvest rate for deer less then 10% of hunter. (archer 6% guns 9%) the state put out almost no Pheasant. you have to spend hundred of dollars to hunt ducks. and the lack of land to hunt. there is also the problem with no Sunday hunting.

And here I was thinking Hawaii is so stupid with their wildlife program.
We fight with the legislature all the time. We tried to get them to have tag fees for wildlife restoration programs, but they wanted the monies to go into the general fund.
BULL SHIFT !!!!

This has to do with the Governor: M. Jodi Rell (R)who doesn’t want to say she raised taxes. The state needs more money but she don’t want people to pay more taxes that are based on out ability to pay. She would rater get the money from some guy that only wants to go out and hunt. Or who needs a license to do his job. It is a back door tax/ The CT DEP is trying to get the fees lower. They have shown that when they do raise fee they get more money. The problem is that there is less hunters. The fee to give the state more money with less hunters. I will be hunting in the state of ma this week. Good luck sean

The guys at work are residents and they are talking about not buying tags because the price went up. It doesn't mean they will not hunt, but they aren't going to pay the new increased tax.
