Said that all along
Yeah that's how I read it as well.
I got the archery one I was looking for!
Phase 3 has nothing to do with the FCFS. Today was supposed to be the first day to return permits not an actual redraw. Straight from FWC.
Re-Issuance Schedule
Returned quota permits will be available for re-issuance every 7 days in Phase III after the initial start date of the phase. Permits returned by 11:59 p.m. Eastern time on Friday will be reissued first-come, first-served at 10:00 am Eastern time the following Tuesday. There will be a separate column in the list of available permits that will display the returned permits as they are returned. Applicants may check after midnight on Friday to view which permits will be available on the following Tuesday.
I even talked to Eddie White today and he stated that they weren't supposed to be up until next Tuesday. He said that Brenda Brand decided to do it today even though it wasn't on the schedule. To me that isn't right to just change it without any notice. Just another F-UP on the part of FWC. What else is new...
If this is true, you definitely have a valid concern, but I don't expect anything less from this useless agency. It really isnt as difficult as these morons make it.
Who the hell is she to decide to do something that is different from what is posted publicly online? That should be grounds for termination! But there's no accountability here, so she'll probably get a promotion
There can still be a drawing even if nothing has been returned yet since there were FCFS leftovers available for ML and GG.
They really need to shorten the Ph 1 to 10-14 days and Ph 2 to 5-7 days so these early hunts down S aren't screwed up!
That's fine if it isn't clear on the website but when 2 different people at Licensing and Permitting told me that the redraws don't start until next Tuesday then that is BS. It also says that permits that are returned after Friday won't be available until the following Tuesday. Well, one DI permit and the Spirit archery permit (my daughter's) I returned on Monday so that would be after Friday wouldn't it???? That meant they should be available NEXT Tuesday, not today!!!! What a joke!!!
Apparently FWC can do whatever they want and not have to be held accountable...
they've only been returning since today. I returned a flying eagle muzz permit at noon and someone has already taken it so that tells me that as soon as you are turning them back they are able to be snatched up all day...
Yeah that's messed up if they told you one day and then did it on another. I thought it was going to be next tues after reading the comments on here and reading the FWC site, but I figured I would check at 10am just in case.
Yeah, I returned a Lake Marion Creek hog tag in the afternoon and it's gone now, so...
How can you tell it has been taken? Normally wouldn't it show up as up for the next drawing on Tues on tomorrows availability list?
I don't, actually. Just a guess, since it says the tags are sold out.
In years past as soon as you returned a permit it would show up on the available list. Maybe they aren't going to compile the list until Friday from now on. Who knows anymore?? Its pretty obvious the people in charge don't even know what the **** is going on.
You better return some more, ya know, just to make sure
