Snow Geese

   


Seasons & Regulations


We have a seven-week timeframe in which we will accommodate hunters (Sept.17/07 – Nov. 3/07). Each week has its own attributes; the earlier weeks usually offer the best Sandhill Crane hunting, while the later weeks quite often offer the best duck hunting. There are generally lots of geese here through the entire season and the upland hunting is quite consistent as well. While some days are better than others, in 2005 and 2006 we had great hunting right through the season with no slow weeks to speak of.

Bag limits:
• 8 dark geese daily(only 3 white-fronts) and 16 possession limit(6 white-fronts)
• 20 white geese daily and 60 possession limit (Snow, Blue, and Ross’ Geese)
• 8 ducks daily(only 3 may be pintails) and 16 possession limit
• 5 Cranes daily and 10 possession limit
• 6 Hungarian Partridges daily and 12 possession limit
• 3 Sharp-Tailed Grouse daily and 6 possession limit

Other relevant Regulations Include:

• legal shooting time is from ½ hour before sunrise to ½ hour after sunset
• non-toxic shot is required for all waterfowl hunting in Saskatchewan
• shotguns must be plugged so as not to hold more than 3 shells in total
• guns must be unloaded in vehicles (no shells in magazine or chamber)
• no alcohol is allowed in vehicles or in the field
• hunting is not allowed on Sundays in Saskatchewan
• geese can only be hunted until 12:00 noon before October 16th.

 

Firearm Regulations


The Federal Government’s firearm regulations require hunters to fill out a Non-Resident Firearm Declaration Form (CAFC 909) which we will send to all our clients in advance (can also be downloaded from this website). Most of our hunters fax this in and get pre-approved which also helps to expedite the process at the airport. This isn’t available if you are driving up in which case you will get approved at the border crossing. This temporary license (valid for 60 days) costs $25 Cdn. It can be paid with Canadian cash, Visa, MasterCard, or American Express while clearing customs. I am pleased to report that our clients had no hassles or delays with this process last fall and were finished in mere minutes.
