MADISON, WI (WTAQ-WRN) — The prices for nonresident hunting and fishing licenses have increased.
The change was effective with the new state budget signed into law by Gov. Tony Evers last week.
The DNR says fee increases range from $5 – $40, and apply only to nonresident hunting and fishing licenses.
Most fishing licenses increased $5. A one-day fishing license is $15 and an annual is now $55.
A gun deer hunting license increased from $160 to $200.
Nonresident hunting and fishing licenses already issued remain valid through March 31, 2024.
