The Pennsylvania Game Commission says there should be plenty of pheasants available for harvest as the new season kicks off.
Statewide junior pheasant hunting season begins tomorrow (Saturday) in Pennsylvania followed by hunters of all ages on October 24th.
The Game Commission plans to stock around 232,000 pheasants through January. A stocking location map is available online through the PA Game Commission website.
Pheasant hunters must, at all times, wear at least 250 square inches of fluorescent orange on the head, chest and back combined. Hunters must abide by a two-pheasant daily limit and six-pheasant possession limit.
Pheasant permits cost just under $27 and need to be signed and carried while hunting along with a general hunting license.
