With a boat no smaller than 16 feet, hunters can find excellent open-water opportunities at Wigwam Bay (north of Bay City) an at Wild Fowl Bay and Quanicassee (east of Bay City). These areas are teaming with puddle ducks, mallards, greenwing teals, bluewing teals, wood ducks, black ducks, pinned tail ducks, widgeon (baldpate) ducks and gadwall. You can hunt from a canoe or 12-foot flat-bottom Jon boat at the Managed Wildfowl Wildlife Areas at Nayanquing Point (northern Bay County), Fish Point (east of Bay County), and Crow Island (southern Bay County). Please call the Michigan Department of Natural Resources Wildlife Division at 989/373-1263 for the most current information. Waterfowl hunting seasons and rules are reviewed and updated annually to protect waterfowl populations. The hunting season is approximately 60 days long and begins the first week in October. The coastal marshes and open waters of the Saginaw Bay provide some of the most productive waterfowl hunting in the country.
