BISMARCK, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – There will be a swell of people in North Dakota beginning this weekend.

The North Dakota Game & Fish Department reports that the non-resident waterfowl season will open up this weekend and run through December 1st.

Game & Fish Outreach Biologist Doug Leier.

Leier says many hunters will be in the state and more specifically, around the Stutsman County region.

He also encourages hunters who may be taking some of the back and side roads to be mindful of the soft roads the recent conditions have created.

As always, Leier encourages everyone to get outdoors and enjoy while the good weather lasts.

You can always get more information at gf.nd.gov.
