BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) - The North Dakota Game and Fish Department is asking for help from waterfowl hunters in preventing the spread of aquatic nuisance species.
State regulations require waterfowl hunters to take numerous steps to clear plants, seeds and plant fragments from decoys, strings, anchors, waders and other equipment. They are also asked to remove all water from decoys, boats, motors, trailers and other watercraft; and remove all aquatic plants from boats and trailers before leaving a marsh or lake.
In addition, hunters are encouraged to brush their hunting dogs free of mud and seeds.
