Ask Fish and Game

Q. I see we are about to have a nice long waterfowl season in Idaho this fall. What do I have to have these days to be legal. A. Besides, of course, your valid Idaho hunting license, you will need the federal stamp and the Federal Migratory Harvest Information Permit. You no longer need an Idaho waterfowl stamp. The Idaho stamp for waterfowl, as well as upland game birds, was discontinued when the last license increase went into effect. Remember non-toxic shot is required for all waterfowl hunting but the choices in shot types is extensive now compared to a few years ago when only steel shot was available.
