Well on the side of ODFW, there has not been an increase in licenses since 2004.

On the crappy side, these increases are far more than what was proposed. I have calls into both ODFW and Senator Frank Morse as to why. This is a 24% increase on the few items that they posted in the article. Here are the proposed prices that we received from ODFW.

Adult angling license. (now) $24.75, (proposed) $30.00, (passed) $32.50
Adult hunting license. (now) $22.50, (proposed) $27.00, (passed) $29.00
Adult Combo license. (now) $43.75, (proposed) $$53.00, (passed) $57.50

This will increase our family by over $100 just for the licenses and tags.

If they could show me the money went to help make hunting and fishing in this state better I would maybe be ok with it but I don't trust the state to spend it wisley

I remember someone recently said there would be "Hope and Change" on it's way.

Looks to me, like we are going to be paying more for less.

That is what I am thinking. I am looking at getting my boys tags and just running around with them without buying anything.
