What to know before you go
Need your license? A full list of fishing and hunting licenses, permits, and stamp types and costs can be found here.
When can I go? Grab the current year's hunting calendar of open seasons by zone and game, along with daily and annual limits at www.mass.gov/hunting-regulations. Freshwater fishing regulations, including seasons and limits, can be found at www.mass.gov/info-details/freshwater-fishing-regulations.
Be safe, be seen. Hunters should be aware that wearing blaze orange is required during some hunting seasons. Learn more here. Keep in mind - while deer are not colorblind, they cannot detect colors like red and orange from green and brown!
