You lost me with your post jims! They still only show the tentative opening dates in the booklet even with the NR application period now matching that of the residents. It does give you longer to hold onto your money before you apply, but we've always known the full season dates and tag quotas, etc., well before the modify/withdraw date by looking in the Final Regulations section on the website because it comes out well ahead of that date. Maybe you weren't aware of that? It will be nice as RR mentioned when you can wait longer to apply to see what is happening with your application in other states. That is probably the best thing about this date change.
