DON’T TOSS OUT YOUR 2004 FISHING AND HUNTING LICENSES
Hunters and anglers are being reminded by the Nevada Department of Wildlife (NDOW) to hang on to their 2004 hunting and fishing licenses because they have two months of life remaining.
“ Nevada’s hunting and fishing licenses do not expire at the end of the year,” said Kathy Teligades, NDOW license office supervisor. “ Nevada’s license year runs from March 1 through the end of February, so licenses are valid through Feb. 28.”
Teligades said Nevada’s license year corresponds to the close of hunting seasons and the final upland game season (cottontail rabbit) closes on Feb. 28. This allows hunters the use of licenses until the close of all hunting seasons without having to purchase a new license while a season is still under way.
Licenses for the 2005-06 license year will be available for sale by late February at most sporting goods stores, bait and tackle shops and NDOW offices.
