All non-waterfowl hunters must:
Wear at least 50% blaze orange or fluorescent pink above the waist
Hats or hoodies also need to follow the same guidelines
Public land users are highly encouraged to wear orange or fluorescent pink during any hunting season as well. If hunting with a dog or other animal, it is recommended that they also wear blaze orange or fluorescent pink, whether it be a bandana or vest.
