Duck hunters should have a good season this year, despite flooding in the southern part of Wisconsin.

Department of Natural Resources migratory game bird ecologist Kent Van Horn says there was some concern about waterfowl populations because of the flooding, but they turned out healthy and abundant.

The DNR Board decided this week that hunters will once again have a full 60-day season.

The duck season in the northern zone will run from Sept. 27 to Nov. 25, while it will run from Oct. 4 to 12 and from Oct. 18 to Dec. 7 in the southern zone.
