Duck season in northern Wisconsin is about to get under way.

The northern zone season opens Sept. 25. State Department of
Natural Resources biologists say waterfowl game species are healthy
and abundant. They say a rainy summer made for excellent
brood-rearing habitat.

The DNR recommends hunters scout for good wetland conditions,
noting hunters who scout harvest more than twice the ducks than
hunters who don't.

The northern zone season runs through Nov. 23. The southern zone
season opens on Oct. 2. It closes on Oct. 10, then reopens on Oct
16 and runs through mid-December.
