Minnesota DNR seeks input on three-duck limit proposal

Featured, Home Page News, Hunting, Minnesota, National Hunting, National News, News /

The Minnesota DNR invites public comment on a proposal to create an optional, alternative three-duck bag limit.
“Waterfowl hunter numbers have declined significantly within the past 20 years due to many factors, including the varying bag limits for certain species and sexes of ducks. That complexity may be a barrier to new or inexperienced hunters,” said Nate Huck, DNR migratory gamebird consultant.

Dan Ladd: Get informed on New York’s antlerless deer regulation changes

Featured, Hunting, National Hunting, Nature Page & Night Sky, New York /

I’ve said before that I wish every active sportsman and woman in New York would read two things: this publication and DEC’s annual hunting and fishing regulations guides. OK, so that’s three things.
As for New York Outdoor News, our job is to inform and we try our best to stay on top of what’s going on with sporting issues in our state. The regulations guides, meanwhile, speak for themselves, and it amazes me how often I’ll read on an internet forum or a social media post where someone is asking someone else to explain a new law or regulation.
