Pheasant and grouse are abundant. Sage hens and ducks are also hunted here, in addition to sharp-tailed and sage grouse, and Hungarian partridge. Wild geese land by the thousands along the Missouri River in the fall, making this area a goose hunter's paradise. Medicine Lake is famous for the flocks of geese that land there. The wide open spaces provide ideal hunting country, and communities like Scobey, Plentywood, Circle, Wolf Point and Glasgow enthusiastically welcome hunters from near and far.
Guest ranches and guided hunting trips are available.
Remember you must have permission to hunt on private land. You'll find plenty of public land in Missouri River Country. Maps of public land and access can be obtained from the Area Bureau of Land Management offices. A BLM map of the area you are in is essential in the country of northeast Montana.
