Nebraska offers many waterfowl hunting opportunities. With a variety of wetland habitats that ducks and geese use both during fall and spring migration, this state is blessed with exceptional duck and goose hunting. The Nebraska waterfowl hunting season starts with teal in September, the light goose conservation order in February and the regular duck and goose seasons in between.

Hunting a mixed bag of geese, ducks, and sandhill cranes from a comfortable heated blind is one of life’s great pleasures.
