Nebraska fall turkey permits available beginning Aug. 12

Hunters may begin purchasing 2024 Nebraska fall turkey permits at 1 p.m. Central Time Aug. 12.

A fall turkey permit still is valid statewide, but hunters are reminded of the significant changes that began with the 2023 fall season.

• Each hunter may only have one fall permit.
• The fall bag limit allows the take of one turkey of either sex with a shotgun or archery equipment.
• All turkey harvests must be reported via Telecheck.
• The fall turkey season is Oct. 1-Nov. 30. 

New for 2024, the price of a nonresident turkey permit, including issuing fee, has increased from $128 to $143. The nonresident landowner permit cost rose from $65.50 to $73. All youth turkey permits remain $8.

Visit the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission’s permitting site, GoOutdoorsNE.com, or a permitting office to purchase permits starting Aug. 12.
