OutdoorNebraska.gov. ■ Spring Turkey Hunting Shotgun season starts April 14 Statewide Put on your camo and grab your shotgun – spring turkey season is here. With a little planning, you can have a great experience. Big Game Program Manager Kit Hams recommends taking food with you, camping overnight, avoiding rain or snow, bringing a kid with you ("They have better hearing than old people and are more entertaining," he quipped), taking bug spray, and tucking in shirts and pant legs to avoid ticks and chiggers. You can also take along a fi shing rod, as turkeys are often heard and spotted around lakes.
