Minnesota Surplus Turkey Permits on Sale Sept. 21st
Minnesota Dept. of Natural Resources


Posted on: 09/16/09 [Comments?]

Fall wild turkey hunting licenses that remain after the landowner and regular lottery drawings will be offered at noon on Monday, Sept. 21.

Leftover landowner licenses and surplus hunting permits will be available on a first-come, first-served basis anywhere that Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) licenses are sold and online, https://www3.wildlifelicense.com/mn/.

"If you applied for a permit and weren't selected or you've never experienced turkey hunting before, it's not too late to get a permit," said Bill Penning, DNR farmland wildlife program leader.

Landowners who qualify may purchase a leftover landowner permit. Hunters can purchase a surplus permit. Because hunting access in many zones is limited, hunters should obtain landowner permission before obtaining a permit.

The fall turkey hunt consists of two five-day seasons - Oct. 14-18 and Oct. 21-25. Zone 601 has a single season running from Oct. 14 to Nov. 12.

Hunters may check the availability of leftover licenses or the status of their lottery applications on the DNR Web site, www.dnr.state.mn.us/hunting/turkey/index.html.

Arkansas Double-Bearded Tom
My morning started out the same as the past mornings in south Arkansas. No birds gobbling at daylight, so I sat listening. Not a sound in ear range for more than two hours. Trying all the calls in my pack with my alum slate in hand. There he was 300 yards away talking back, then 200 yards.
