License documents are being mailed to outlets throughout the state and should be available during the last week of December.

A 1974 salmon-steelhead tag is also needed starting Jan. 1 and anglers are asked to return their expired punch cards to the Game Commis sion as soon as possible. The information contained on these cards is important in determining angler success, and vital to the anadromous fish management program."
