No more Hunting/Fishing regs booklets?

[jim335]

This past week stopped at town clerks office to get Hunting/Fishing licenses, everything worked and got both DMP's.  I asked for the regs/guides, she said they're not printing the Fishing anymore, and this is the last year they're printing the Hunting/Trapping guide.   Now if you guys already covered this, sorry, I must of missed it.   But is this true?  If it is I'm totally against this.  Anybody here anything?

probably cutting costs, we will all have to download and print the pdf from the DEC site

U can download the pocket range app on a smart phone also....still sucks

Just another screw-job of hunters by the DEC. All they did was to transfer the printing costs to the hunters. Those guys that don't have computers will just have to guess at what they think the regs say. Granted there may not be many, or maybe there are.

I don't know about the rest of you but I'd pay the extra Dollar king Andy saved us to keep 5 he booklets

Something does not sound right, I thought all of the advertisements in the reg. publications was supposed to offset the printing costs.I would not be willing to pay extra for something that should be included with the license cost.

The letter with my Lifetime tags said they weren't mailing them out but I picked one up at the Town Clerk.  They had both the fishing and the hunting there.

This new policy, if true, is ageist and also discriminates against Luddites.

exactly what I was thinking...wait, what did you say?

I got both at my local clerk when I got my license last week

[Mr VJP]

My Lifetime license comes in the mail and I have to call them up and ask them to send me a couple of copies of the regs.  They always do.  That's bad enough.  Hope they don't stop printing them.  Internet speed sucks where I live.

I got both of mine

The town clerk still had it wrong.

What was the date coverage?  2013-2014 were given out last year. I've got one of those.

I'm talking about the Fishing regs.

5th paragraph on that link :

In addition, the new Hunting & Trapping regulation guides are available at all license issuing outlets, as well as on DEC website. New Fishing regulations guide will be available next spring.

Got my hunting book with the license. Then when I went to get the dog license, she handed me another. I handed it back. Maybe this is why they run short?
