There are various seasons for waterfowl during the regular season and most are by daily draws...Canada goose season ends on the 29th for the RPG areas...Snow goose season continues, but they (PGC/USFG) regulate it also..

I used to lease six farm around there when our goose season was ninty days and three geese a day. Used to be a lot of geese there now them white flying carp pushed the Canadians out when the snows leave there's nothing left but muddy fields

I saw that it was a consideration but no official plans had been made to do that..it was just an area they would look at ...considering the current situation...unless something changed since yesterday when I read that.
