Actual legal hunting hours (one-half hour before sunrise to one-half hour after sunset) for
Time Zone A are
listed in the Hunting Hours Table.
To determine the opening (a.m.) and closing (p.m.) time for any day in another zone, add the minutes
shown below to the times listed in the Time Zone A Hunting Hours Table.
The hunting hour listed in the table reflects Eastern Standard Time, with an adjustment for
daylight-saving time. If you are hunting in Gogebic, Iron, Dickinson or Menominee counties (Central Standard Time), you must make an additional adjustment to the printed time by subtracting one hour.
Exceptions: Woodcock hunting hours are sunrise to sunset.
Spring turkey hunting hours are one-half hour before sunrise to one half hour before sunset.
Waterfowl hunting hours are one-half hour before sunrise to sunset. See Fur
Harvester Information for rules about hunting raccoon, fox, coyote and opossum at night.
