New Youth Licenses Available

Print

To help encourage youth and their families to get out more and experience Montana’s great outdoors, the 1999 Montana Legislature created new youth pricing on some fishing and hunting licenses to begin this year. Resident youth ages 15 to 17 may purchase a Fishing License for $6.50 and resident Upland Game Bird License for $3 -- both about 50 percent less than the fees in previous years. The Legislature also created a new Combination Sports License for young Montanans ages 12 to 17 for $25, about 50 percent of the fee paid for a similar license in previous years. The youth Combination Sports License allows fishing and hunting of upland game birds, deer and elk.
