KDFW's surplus and confiscated item auction happens Oct. 5

The Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources will host its fall live auction in Frankfort to sell surplus items and confiscated hunting and fishing equipment on Monday, Oct. 5.

Surplus items include equipment and materials no longer needed by the agency. Confiscated items are obtained through court order and as the result of a violation of fish and wildlife laws.

Items available for sale includes a large selection of boats, boat trailers and motors. Titles and registrations will be available on the day of the sale. Items are sold as-is and will not be available for hands-on inspection prior to the sale. Under state law, only qualified Kentucky residents may bid on confiscated items. Some items will require a criminal background check.

Proceeds from Kentucky Fish and Wildlife auctions are directed into the department’s fish and game fund for the department’s normal operating expenses.

Registration opens at 7:30 a.m. (ET), and the auction of surplus property and confiscated items will begin at 9:30 a.m.  The auction will be held outdoors, rain or shine, on the department’s headquarters campus at 1 Sportsman’s Lane in Frankfort.
