So you want
to know what Arizona and Waterfowl are doing
in the same sentence? Believe it or not Arizona
has a variety of wetland habitats,
which occur, throughout the state and subsequently
ducks and geese locate them offering excellent
hunting throughout the fall and winter months.
This site will hopefully get you started
in the right direction to Arizona Waterfowling.
Arizona
falls within the Pacific Flyway, along with
11 other western states. Waterfowl species occurring
in the state include both resident and migratory
populations. Waterfowl migrating into or
through Arizona generally come from the Northern
Rocky Mountain states as well as Alberta
and Saskatchewan. All common species of both
diving and puddle ducks as well as dark and
white geese can be found in Arizona. Arizona's
waterfowl hunting season usually opens on
the first Friday in October and runs into
January. Hunting seasons and bag limits are
set by the Pacific Flyway frameworks and
adopted annually by the Game and Fish Commission
in late July or earl August.
Before you
go on your hunt, be sure to check your
equipment and know how to properly care for
your game.
