State Pheasant Season Opens October 26
The state fish and game Commission announced the first statewide pheasant season in two years will start October 26, with the closing date and bag limits to be decided at the September meeting. The panel also limited Hungarian partridge and sage grouse seasons due to small populations and noted a nearly five percent rise in upland bird day seasons. Opening dates and bag limits apply to blue and other grouse in specified counties, while sage grouse season was ruled out earlier for lack of birds. Hunters are urged to return pheasant leg bands to the Helena office for study.
