Minnesota's hunting and fishing license fees increased March 1 for the first time since 2001, and the changes are among the largest and most comprehensive ever.The cost of a fishing license jumps by $5 to $22. A small game hunting license, now $19, will cost $22. And a deer license, now $26, will cost $30.Not everyone will pay more. There are new $5 hunting and fishing licenses for youths, and new three-day licenses for occasional hunters and anglers.Here's a link to my previous story: http://www.startribune.com/sports/outdoors/191926401.html.
