Alska game and fish

Tier II hunts are subsistence hunts and are only available for Alaska residents 10 years of age or older. Most registration hunts are available for both residents and nonresidents.

Generally registration hunts do not limit the number of permits and seasons are closed by emergency order if a harvest goal is met.

A few registration hunts limit the number of permits on a first-come, first-served basis. For more information visit the Registration Hunts page. The general season harvest is the type of hunting most people are familiar with - the basic hunt where you buy a license, get tags or harvest tickets for big game, and follow the general season dates and bags limits. Visit the General Season Hunts page for further information.

Visit the Subsistence Harvest Permits page for more information. Alaska Department of Fish and Game. Hide Section Navigation. In the next few years, the department will continue to put the needs of our citizens first by: Making it a priority to put food-both fish and wildlife-on the plates of Alaskans.

Food security is important to many of our citizens and we must ensure predictable and ample access to fish and wildlife. This includes active management to meet this end. Protecting and maintaining our state rights and authority to manage our fish and game resources. These rights were hard fought during statehood. Ensuring that the department is contributing to the Alaskan economy and the well-being of Alaskans.

Sincerely, Douglas Vincent-Lang Commissioner.
