I've looked all over and really can't find the answer. I take my sons pheasant hunting sometimes on WPAs and i was wondering if you can shoot waterfowl on WPAs. Any info would be helpful! Thanks!

The answer you're looking for is yes you sure may "unless posted otherwise which is pretty rare." If it's open to pheasant hunting it's open to all legal hunting.

Thanks! I wasn't sure so I thought I'd ask and I was going to call the G&F. But last night I took the boys for a quick pheasant hunt and a nice mallard flew overhead (about 10 yds) and was a perfect opportunity for my youngest to get his first duck but I made him pass because I was unsure. Now I know, thanks! :beer:

No problem! Good; responsible decision even though and best of luck to your son on his 1st duck. (I'm sure he was just chomping at the bit!) :lol:

If you are talking a Federal WPA, remember you have to use steel shot, even though you are hunting pheasants....
