That area known as the Waimea Bermland contained within the stopbanks (or a 200 metre strip from both
river banks where stopbanks are not present) of the Waimea and Wairoa Rivers up to the junction of the
Lee River and the Wai-iti River up to State Highway No. 6 (Wai-iti Bridge).

Canada Goose may be hunted or killed 24 hours per day after 29 July 2001.

Decoy Limit

No limit.

Special Conditions

  1. All permanent hunting stands/maimais used for the purposes of hunting of game on the Wairau
    Lagoons must be situated above the mean high water level.

  2. Moored camouflaged boats are permitted for hunting or killing game in the Wairau Lagoons, but
    shall not be within 200 metres of any other hunting stand.

Farmers who hunt their own property are allowed, under section 19 of the Wildlife Act, to do so without
having to purchase a licence. This probably means you will not receive a current copy of the regional
newsletter and national magazine. Contact the Nelson Fish and Game Office to place your address on the
mailing list.
