Dakota Digest

PLOTS Guide Online
The North Dakota Game and Fish Department ’ s Private Land Open To Sportsmen Guide for 2024 is now available online at the Game and Fish website , gf . nd . gov .
The guide will feature about 836,000 PLOTS acres . Because PLOTS tracts can be added or removed from the program throughout the year , hunters are encouraged to use the Game and Fish mobile app or other mapping and browser-based applications to locate and identify these tracts . Map sheets are updated weekly on the department ’ s website .
The PLOTS guide features maps highlighting these walk-in areas , identified in the field by inverted triangular yellow signs , as well as other public lands .
To maximize the use of hunter dollars , fewer signs will be placed on PLOTS tracts in the future . The cost savings will be directed to the addition of more habitat and access . The free printed PLOTS guides will be available at most license vendors and other locations throughout the state .
The guides are not available by mail , so hunters will have to pick one up at a local vendor or Game and Fish offices , or print individual maps from the website .

HIP Registration
Migratory bird hunters of all ages need to register with the Harvest Information Program prior to hunting ducks , geese , swans , mergansers , coots , cranes , snipe , doves and woodcock . Hunters must register in each state they are licensed to hunt .
Hunters can HIP certify when purchasing a license by visiting the North Dakota Game and Fish Department website , gf . nd . gov . Those who registered to hunt during the spring light goose conservation order in North Dakota do not have to register with HIP again , as it is required only once per year .
HIP registration is a cooperative program designed to determine a sample of hunters to measure harvest of migratory birds for management purposes .
