does any one know why it is so much for washington residents to accuire a liscence in oregon - 180$ and its 65 for oregonians to get a washington liscence ?
im an oregon native and i have a lot of friends that live in the wa- just courius.....
see you on the water !
with all due respect... lets see what $180 gets you anywhere
1 weekend in Disneyland with 2 kids
1 nite at great wolf lodge with 1 kid
a couple hours in any one of the concrete tepees ( casinos )
2 lift tickets and parking for 2 days at Hood
1 lame azz laui ticket in maui
2 tanks of gas in my truck to get to my favorite river..twice
1.5 tickets to the rolling stones
dinner and drinks for 2 at el goucho
or the right to fish every single day of the year in one of the best fishing places on Earth... yeah.. what a rip-off
Where are you getting your info?!? While IT IS more expensive in OR, your numbers are way off.
Actually, my washington license would look something like this
23 - ANNUAL COMBINATION FISHING LICENSE $ 89.40
44 - COMPLIMENTARY VEH PERMIT $ 0.00
356 - COLUMBIA RIVER SALMON AND STEELHEAD ENDORSEMENT CATCH RECORD CARD IS REQUIRED $ 8.25
115 - ENDORSEMENT: PUGET SOUND CRAB $2.50
SUB TOTAL: $ 100.15
DEALER FEE: $ 3.00
TOTAL: $ 103.15
now, you Washinton residents would pay something like this in OR...
Angling License $106.25
Combined Angling tag $26.50
Shellfish $25.50
Total $158.25
In the end, it's just apparent that ODFW knows it can pad it's budget by exploiting folks coming from out of town. These numbers can drastically change by add-ons like 2-rod licenses, boat licenses, hatchery harvest tags, etc. I've put in over $200 into ODFW licenses and tags this year. Yes, It would have been cheaper for me just to cross over and fish Washington.
Mr. Dungeon Master I'm shocked and appauled, why didn't you say how many bottles of jameson you can get for 180 dollars! I just cried a little on the inside... besides when we goin fishing my good sir!
