PeterHenry Posted March 22, 2023 Report Share Posted March 22, 2023 Is September 1st - January 31st not the inland fowling season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centrepin Posted March 22, 2023 Report Share Posted March 22, 2023 GL42 doesn't have specific seasonal dates nor mention Greylag Geese. 2023 GL is a continuation of 2022. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
