Licenses cost 3.25 dollars until Jan 1, 1976, with a required federal duck stamp for teal hunters 16 and older. Daily limits are ten doves and four teal with possession limits after day one. Deer, elk and prairie chicken hunts require special permits with deadlines and application details. A bass open championship at Lake Eufaula Oct 18 funds the BBFAP for wildlife research.
