As publishedNortheast Zone: Sept. 26-Dec. 1, 2026 and Dec. 12, 2026-Jan. 18, 2027. Northwest Zone: Oct. 17, 2026-Jan. 3, 2027 and Jan. 6-31, 2027. South Zone (except Moapa Valley): Oct. 17-25, 2026 and Oct. 28, 2026-Jan. 31, 2027. South Zone (Moapa Valley to Muddy/Virgin Rivers confluence): Oct. 31, 2026-Jan. 31, 2027.
Per NDOW Commission Regulation CR-26-10 (dated Feb.6, 2026), a real, zone-split season: Northeast Zone Sept. 26-Dec. 1, 2026 and Dec. 12, 2026-Jan. 18, 2027; Northwest Zone Oct. 17, 2026-Jan. 3, 2027 and Jan. 6-31, 2027; South Zone (except Moapa Valley) Oct. 17-25, 2026 and Oct. 28, 2026-Jan. 31, 2027; South Zone (Moapa Valley to the Muddy/Virgin Rivers confluence) Oct. 31, 2026-Jan. 31, 2027. Bag/possession is listed as 3 daily / 9 possession -- notably lower than the ~8/24 figure most other states report under the same federal snipe framework, so there's a real chance this number is actually rail's limit misattributed to snipe. Confirm directly against CR-26-10 before relying on it.
