Title: niawiakum river area

 Can you waterfowl hunt in the  Niawiakum river natural area. I know its DNR and should be able to be hunted, but I cant find any literature about hunting in the recreation stuff on the dnr site. I guess the word preserve scares me. PM me if you would like.

Good spot you noticed there. If you can't get an answer, I'll toss you a Bone, river, about other good spots.

Here's some of the things allowed on DNR lands. As you can tell, your desire to recreate doesn't seem compatible with this state's vision of what your public lands should be used for.
