   Double Your Hunting Adventure in Idaho!

Dear First,

Double your hunting adventure in Idaho this fall when you buy a discounted second deer and/or elk tag.

On August 1, 2014, unsold nonresident general season deer and elk tags were discounted for all hunters as a second tag.  A second elk tag is $299; a second deer tag is $199.

The unsold nonresident general season deer and elk tags have long been available for purchase as a second tag, but at regular nonresident prices. In July, the Idaho Fish and Game Commission voted to discount unsold tags.

Find out more about the Second Tag Discount on the Idaho Fish and Game website.

Apply for Unclaimed Controlled Hunt Tags

Controlled hunt tags unclaimed by August 1 are made available in a second drawing. Deadline for applications is August 15. The drawing is held around August 20. Any tags leftover after the drawing go on sale on a first-come, first-served basis August 25 at 10:00 am Mountain Time.

Nonresident License Includes a Fishing License

Wherever you hunt in Idaho, there's remarkable fishing close by - salmon, steelhead, cutthroat trout, bass, sturgeon and more. The nonresident hunting license includes a 3-day fishing license for most species, except salmon and steelhead. However, nonresidents can purchase a 3-day salmon/steelhead permit. Check out the Fishing Planner.

Over-the-Counter Tags

Residents and nonresidents can buy over-the-counter tags in Idaho to hunt deer, elk, turkey, bear, lion and wolves. A general season elk tag is connected to a specific elk zone, but all other general season tags can be used in any general hunt in the state for the selected species. General tags include many, but not all, of the game units and elk zones.

 What to know about over-the-counter tags:

  • Over-the-counter tags are general season tags and can be purchased up to the day you go hunting.
  • General deer tags include most hunting units
  • General elk tags cover most elk zones.

Controlled hunts are used to manage harvest in highly popular units and zones. If you applied for a controlled hunt and didn't draw, you can still hunt in Idaho this fall with a general season tag.
