Check your exact hunt before you go
Start with the species, season segment and location shown in your license or tag. Match the county, unit or zone in the official rules, then check legal game, bag and possession limits, shooting hours and permitted equipment. Public-land hunts, youth hunts and controlled hunts can have separate schedules.
A date in this summary does not establish that a property is open or that a hunter is eligible. Read agency updates and closures as well as the annual guide. For dates and species outside the selected examples above, use the current official season source.
Licenses, permits and current fees
Confirm the license, tag, permit and hunter-education requirements for your residency, age and hunt with the state agency. Current prices and availability belong in the agency licensing system; an older season table should not be used as a price list.
