idfg-staff
JEROME - The Idaho Department of Fish and Game is asking waterfowl hunters to make corrections in the shooting hours table on page 19, of the 2004 Waterfowl Seasons and Rules. The error will affect all counties in the state. The regulations reflect daylight savings time taking effect on October 26, when the actual date of adjustment should be on October 31. Shooting hours on the October 26, are listed to begin at 5:50 a.m. and end at 4:43 p.m. They should begin at 6:50 a.m. and end at 5:43 p.m. Correct hunting hours for the other dates are: October 27, from 6:52 a.m. to 5:41 p.m. October 28, from 6:53 a.m. to 5:40 p.m. October 29, from 6:55 a.m. to 5:38 p.m. October 30, from 6:56 a.m. to 5:37 p.m. The regulations are printed correctly from October 31 to the end of the season. Waterfowl season opens October 9 in the Magic Valley Region. The bag limits are five ducks of any kind not including more than one canvasback, one female mallard, one pintail, two redheads or four scaup. Goose hunters may take three of any kind with only two white-fronted geese. For more information or any questions, contact the Idaho Department of Fish and Game Magic Valley Regional Office at 324-4359.
