Hunters who wish to hunt in a special turkey permit area this spring must apply by March 15 for a permit and must purchase a spring turkey license before hunting.

Special spring turkey permit areas in western Montana include Granite, Mineral, Missoula, Lincoln, Sanders and Powell Counties.

Applicants for spring turkey permits may apply in writing, by visiting a Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks office or by downloading an application from FWP’s web page, fwp.mt.gov.    Applications must mailed to the FWP Regional Office managing the special permit area where the applicant would like to hunt.

A written application must include name, address and ALS number.   Applicants must indicate which special permit hunting area the application is for and include a $5 nonrefundable drawing fee.

Details on spring turkey hunting in the general hunting areas and special permit areas are available in the 2006 Spring Turkey Hunting Regulations available at FWP regional offices and FWP license providers after March 9.
