Q. Shooting hours on page 19 of the waterfowl regs seem to be out of whack.
A. You are right, the chart fails to account for the time change to Standard Time coming a week later this year than last year, so the hours are wrong for the week preceding the time change, set for October 31 this year. The hours "fell back" on October 26 last year. Apologies to waterfowlers.
While we're at corrections, air rifles are ok for the shooting of forest grouse, contrary to a recent Ask Fish and Game.
