This fall, Louisiana waterfowl hunters will be able to enjoy a special nine-day black-bellied whistling duck season. The statewide season will run from Oct. 3-11 in 2026.

This experimental season was approved following justification outlined in a proposal submitted to, and supported by, the Mississippi Flyway Council, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Regulations Committee.
