Shotgun turkey season is just around the corner. Very soon, hunters will take to the field and experience the excitement of calling in and harvesting a gobbler.

A few things to know: Remember all turkey harvests must be reported via Telecheck [ [link removed] ]. Also, you may harvest no more than one turkey per calendar day during the spring season, and may only shoot two for the season.

While nonresident permits have sold out, Nebraska hunters can still buy a permit and take advantage of this season. Learn more online. [ [link removed] ]
