ND License questions

So A waterfowl license in north dakota......Ive herd its good for early goose and spring goose? Is there specail stamps for these seasons like MN? Thanks just want to clear things up

Last year I didn't buy stamp for the spring season. I called the North Dakota Game and Fish and they said they only sell them in the fall so I didn't need one. I'm guessing the same holds true for nonresidents. I would call and check just in case.

Straight from the horse's mouth:

Quote:

Residents can hunt during the spring season by having last fall’s 2011-12 bird licenses. Otherwise, hunters will need to purchase either a 2012-13 combination license; or a small game, and general game and habitat license.

Nonresidents, regardless of age, need a 2012 spring light goose season license. The cost is $50 and the license is good statewide. Nonresidents who hunt the spring season remain eligible to buy a fall season license. The spring season does not count against the 14-day fall hunting season regulation.

Also, and this is important: HIP registration is a must:

Quote:

Hunters must obtain a new Harvest Information Program registration number before venturing out into the field. The HIP number can be obtained online or by calling (888) 634-4798. The HIP number is good for the fall season as well, so spring hunters should save it to record on their fall license.
