Idaho Fish and Game

Waterfowl Season Continues

idfg-mcoleman
Waterfowl hunters are reminded that they need a 2009 hunting license if they want to keep hunting into the new year. All hunters must have a valid hunting license with a federal migratory game bird harvest information program validation, and hunters 16 years old or older must have a federal migratory bird stamp, good through the end of the waterfowl seasons. Nontoxic shot is required to hunt waterfowl. The 107-day season for duck, geese, coots and snipe continues through January 16, 2009, in Area 1, northern and eastern Idaho, and through January 23, 2009, in Area 2, southwestern Idaho and Magic Valley. There is no season on canvasbacks this year. Please consult Idaho waterfowl hunting rules book for bag limits and other details. The rules brochures are available at Idaho Fish and Game offices and hunting license vendors across the state. And they are available at the Fish and Game Website: http://fishandgame.idaho.gov/cms/hunt/rules/wf/.
