DFG Announces Delayed Waterfowl Opener for Westside Units on Grizzly Island Wildlife Area

The Department of Fish and Game announced that three Type-B areas located along Interstate 680, which include the Gold Hills Unit, Goodyear Slough Unit, and West Family Unit, will have a delayed opener for waterfowl season due to maintenance issues. These areas are expected to be open prior to the fourth week of waterfowl season.

The Type-A area Grizzly Island Wildlife Area, however, will be open to accommodate a full capacity of 350 people for opening day and the check station will operate according to schedule. At Grizzly Island, there are more ponds flooded up to shoot level for this year’s opener than was for last year’s opener.
