Chuck, Ill give you credit for responding to people, but you're not listening... Right now you could jack up the prices, even for just for certain tags ex sheep. But when the population grows, so will the demand and once you have started that pattern it will follow for all species. Then its the king and his nobles and no one else. Not even you.
I get the frustration, but the answer is in changing "resident". personally I advocated for a 3-5 year waiting period (last time we had this argument...or was it the time before that.....) along with no outfitter/non resident tags for draw species in a particular wmu.
If you want funds for enforcement, triple the fines for every poaching offense, and make them mandatory, no judicial opinion involved.
For what it's worth, totally agree with the "if you get drawn you get charged for the tag" idea.
