The youth and – new for 2020 – veterans/active-duty U.S. military personnel waterfowl hunting weekend will be Sept. 19-20. This statewide hunt is for properly licensed youth 16 years of age and younger and eligible veterans and active-duty U. S. military personnel only.
Ducks, mergansers, geese, coots and moorhens may be harvested. The daily limits and species restrictions are the same as those allowed in the regular waterfowl hunting season. Adults accompanying youth hunters are not permitted to take these species during the hunt unless hunting during the September portion of the Canada goose hunting season. Youth 16 years of age also must have a waterfowl license and a federal duck stamp.
Participating veterans and active-duty U.S military personnel are required to have documentation of verification afield and present it upon request of a Michigan conservation officer, tribal conservation officer or any law enforcement officer.
The following documentation, along with a valid Michigan driver’s license or voter registration card, will be accepted as proof of status: military ID, leave papers, duty papers, military orders, copy of DD Form 214, enhanced driver’s license or documentation from the Veterans Administration regarding disability status. Participating veterans and active-duty U.S. military personnel must have a waterfowl license and a federal duck stamp.
