CPW Raising prices

[emiller35]

Yep, horrible decisions continue to be made. Like the duck split (season closes for 3 weeks) which is when the best duck hunting is. I don?t think any other state does this. If they are going to raise the waterfowl stamp price there better be some improved access, improved properties, and improve the season by getting rid of the split.

The spilt is a nationwide thing, usually 2-3 weeks everywhere. But I agree with you.

Somewhere recently I was reading about sheep tag auctions. Maybe Montana? The prices reported were in the lots of thousands. I think the record for the auctions is near half million. That's crazy.

Sheep has a very Rich following. Huge dollars are spent for coveted tags

That is absolutely correct, Sheep Show in Reno brings in millions for tags every year. It was a Montana Big Horn rag that went for 560,000 that I believe was the record. Usually every tag goes for 6 figures regardless of location

So who's the real sheep in that case?

AND something like 85-95% of that money goes directly to managing those animals.

What *is* management of wildlife?

I'm sure someone like Steven Rinella (who is always making that point) could tell you better than I could, but I'm pretty sure it's not getting all the park rangers Mercedes-Benz G500s to cruise around in and stuff.

I am looking at the wording on the "Annual ANS Stamp - Colorado Resident Vessels* "

* Vessels registered in the state of Colorado, or Colorado resident motorboats or sailboats documented by the U.S. Coast Guard or otherwise exempt from in-state registration​.

That asterisk includes all vessels "otherwise exempt from in-state registration​". I suspect that means they now want a $25 fee to put your kayak, float tube, canoe, etc on the water.
