Fall wild turkey leftover licenses available starting Sept. 19 (2005-09-06)

Applicants who were unsuccessful in the 2005 fall wild turkey lottery may apply for leftover licenses.

Leftover permits will be available on a first-come, first-sold basis at any ELS agent and online. Online license sales can be purchased by clicking on ww.dnr.state.mn.us Online surplus fall turkey licenses will be also be available at noon, Sept. 19.

Because hunting access in many zones is limited, hunters should obtain landowner permission before getting a leftover permit. The fall turkey hunt consists of two five-day seasons -- Oct. 12-16 and Oct. 19-23.

There are 189 leftover permits available in 22 areas. The areas are: 341A: 31, 342A: 54, 345A: 76, 346A: 11, 348A: 32, 349A: 46, 462A: 2, 465A: 9, 337B: 75, 349B: 55, 443B: 22, 461B: 2, 464B: 12, 465B: 11, 467B: 3.

Only applicants who were unsuccessful in the fall 2005 turkey hunt lottery may obtain these licenses. A person who obtains a leftover permit does not lose any existing preference for future lottery drawings.

There is no additional application fee, but hunters obtaining leftover permits must pay the regular turkey hunting license and stamp fees. Unsuccessful party applicants must apply individually to purchase these licenses. All license sales are final; there will be no refunds.

Hunters may check the availability of leftover licenses or the status of their lottery applications on the DNR Web site at www.dnr.state.mn.us.
