Game Hunting Regulations




NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 22 — 11 MARCH 2015

(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.

(3) Farmers who hunt their own property under section 19 of the Wildlife Act 1953 are allowed to do so without
having to purchase a licence, although they are subject to this notice and the Regulations. Those farmers who
wish to do so can receive a current copy of the regional newsletter and national magazine. Contact the Nelson
Fish and Game Council office to place your address on the mailing list.

(4) Pheasant hunting is by permit only. Permits are available on request from Nelson/Marlborough Fish and Game
Council offices at no cost, but there will be a requirement for hunters to fill in a hunter diary. This will allow Fish
and Game to gather accurate information on pheasant hunting activity throughout the region upon which it will
be able to base future management decisions.

(5) Waimea Estuary. Due to the proximity of the cycleway, those hunting Pearl Creek and Neiman Creek are
advised to use caution.
