North Carolina Ducks Reach 15 Year High This Fall
North Carolina waterfowl biologists told hunters at the fall hearing that duck populations, led by gadwalls redheads and canvasbacks, will reach record levels this year due to the end of a drought in nesting grounds. A proposed season runs Oct 5-7, Nov 22-25, and Dec 9-Jan 20 with daily limits of five birds and specific restrictions on wood ducks redheads and several duck types. Final action by the Wildlife Resources Commission is set for Wednesday.
