Outdoors notebook | Waterfowl will be plentiful in Ohio for fall hunting

The upcoming waterfowl season is the first in which duck and goose hunters no longer have to wait until September for the Ohio Wildlife Council to announce the dates. Because of a change in the way states are allowed to do their waterfowl business, the council in April established: hunting dates, which begin Oct. 15 or Oct. 22, depending on zone; bag limits, which include a lowering of the canvasback take; and moving the line north between the state’s waterfowl zones.
