The East River season dates would change from the second Saturday of December to December 26 and run through the third Sunday of January.
The Bobcat Hunting and Trapping Season will be finalized at the July 8-9 GFP Commission meeting, which will be held in Pierre at the Ramkota RiverCentre. To view the full proposals on those seasons, visit: www.gfp.sd.gov/agency/commission/default.aspx and look under the “Rule Proposals” heading.
