Wisconsin Spring Turkey Hunting Permits Still Available!
« on: February 09, 2016, 12:17:16 PM »
109,367 remaining permits available beginning mid-March

MADISON – The 2016 spring turkey permit drawing has ended, and 131,402 successful applicants will receive spring wild turkey permits. A total of 240,768 permits have been made available for the spring 2016 turkey season.

Postcard notifications have been mailed to successful applicants – hunters can also monitor permit status online through the Department of Natural Resources Online Licensing Center or via the DNR Customer Call Center from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., seven days a week, at 1-888-WDNRINFo (1-888-936-7463).

Leftover spring turkey permits go on sale starting March 21 with Zone 1

The 109,367 leftover permits for the 2016 spring turkey hunting season will be first issued for sale by zone, one zone per day. Each zone will have a designated sales date and will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Extra turkey tags can be purchased at a rate of one per day until the zone and time period sells out or the season closes.

Scheduled sales dates for zones have leftover permits, and are as follows:

Zone 1 – Monday, March 21;
Zone 2 – Tuesday, March 22;
Zone 3 – Wednesday, March 23;
Zone 4 – Thursday, March 24; and
Zones 5, 6 and 7 – Friday, March 25 (due to the low number of permits left in these units, sales have been combined into one day).
After zone-only sales days, all remaining turkey tags will be made available for purchase Saturday, March 26.

Hunters are encouraged to check the turkey zone map [PDF] to verify where they would like to hunt and use the department’s turkey permit availability page to see if permits are available for the period and zone in which they wish to hunt.

Leftover turkey permits will cost $10 for residents and $15 for non-residents – each will have equal opportunity to purchase over-the-counter permits. All hunters will be required to purchase a spring turkey license and 2016 Wild Turkey Stamp, unless they have previously purchased the license and stamp or are a 2016 Conservation Patron License holder. Leftover permit purchases will not affect preference point status for future spring or fall turkey permit drawings.
