State Dove Season Plan
07/28/2010
Mississippi wildlife officials reportedly approved a plan this past week to again divide state dove hunting areas into two zones with three different seasons in each.
According to a recent Clarion Ledger article, the North Zone includes areas north of U.S. Highway 84 and those areas south of 84 that are west of Mississippi Highway 35. The South Zone includes those areas south of 84 that are east of 35.
Dove seasons in the North Zone are Sept. 4-Sept. 26, Oct. 9-Nov. 3 and Dec. 26-Jan. 15; in the South, the seasons are Sept. 4-12, October 9-Nov. 4 and Dec. 13-Jan. 15.
The daily limit is 15 in both zones and the possession limit is 30, but no possession limit is allowed on opening day.
