DOVER, Del. – The Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control will open its annual low digit surf fishing tag auction on Nov. 25 at 9 a.m. through usgovbid.com. DNREC states that the online auction will support Delaware State Parks and will remain available through Dec. 11.
This year’s auction features 14 individual low number tags such as 48, 89, 196, 240, 267, 455 and 777, along with eight choice categories covering numbers 76 through 9999. The highest bidder in each category will be able to select any available number within that range. The minimum bid for all low digit tags is 250 dollars.
State law requires that surf fishing tags numbered 1 through 200 be assigned only to vehicles registered in Delaware. The General Assembly created the auction process in 2015, giving the DNREC Division of Parks and Recreation the authority to offer low digit tags to the highest bidders each year. DNREC also notes that a surf fishing tag on its own does not grant drive on beach access. A valid surf fishing permit is still required for vehicles entering designated surf fishing areas. Annual and two year surf fishing permits are expected to be available soon.
More information about the auction is posted at destateparks.com/LowDigitTags.
