Located on the Missouri River in the North Central Flyway, the Bismarck-Mandan area offers some of the best fishing and hunting opportunities available in North America.

Although the Missouri river System is renowned for its walleye fishery, 19 of North Dakota's 23 game fish species are found in the Missouri. Some of the best natural areas of the relatively unaltered habitat left on the Missouri River System are just upstream and downstream from Bismarck-Mandan.

This habitat is home to abundant upland and big game. Pheasant, grouse, hungarian partridge, dove white-tailed deer and many other non-game species of birds and animals are available for picture taking, observing and hunting.
