New rules in effect now for nonresidents using public lands in Oklahoma
New this year, nonresidents accessing certain public hunting and fishing areas for any reason must check in and out of the area, and most nonresidents hunting game birds on a WMA (this includes any GMA, PHA, WRP, WDU, or WMU) must possess a game bird permit. The game bird permit costs $100 and is available through the Go Outdoors Oklahoma license system.
