JAMESTOWN, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – North Dakota’s first “fall” hunting season starts this Sunday, August 15th.

North Dakota’s early Canada goose season dates are set, with bag limits and licensing requirements the same as last year.

Game & Fish Wildlife Biologist Doug Leier.

Leier says with the fast approaching archery deer season coming up on September 3rd, residents are encouraged to start preparing now.

For the anglers, Leier encourages anyone to visit the Game & Fish Department website for great information, such as removing the Y bones from Northern Pike.

Visit gf.nd.gov for more information.
