Default RE: Gonna hunt the Dakotas this falland need some info

Isn't NoDak a state you can hunt private land as long as there are no posted signs? It used to be but maybe they have changed the laws?

There was an article in Field and Stream about this last year. A couple guys just took off and hunted ND. They scouted and when the found the ducks they stopped and asked permission and were rarely denied. Check the archives on the Field and Stream website and you should be able to find the article. It would be very helpful to you.

I live in Western South Dakota and there aren't a lot of places to hunt out here for waterfowl. The Missouri River down around Vermillion and Yankton is great waterfowl hunting but you need a boat capable of handling the river and current. I think border rules apply down there. If you put the boat in on the SD side you can hunt the NE side and vice versa. The license in NE can be bought over the counter.
