Checked on the agency's site November 6, 2026. Licenses, units, bag limits and shooting hours differ, and dates can vary by unit: the regulations are what count, so read them before you go.

Walk-in areas, wildlife management areas and public grassland often sit next to private ground with no fence between them. Download the maps for your area ahead of time and Cartahaven shows your GPS position on them offline, so you know whose field you are standing in.
