Understanding bag limits means knowing how many birds you may take in a single day of hunting. For ruffed grouse in Maine, the daily bag limit is four birds. This cap helps protect grouse populations while still allowing a meaningful harvest for hunters, even as populations fluctuate from year to year. Remember, this is the number you can take in one day; there is usually a separate possession limit that applies over the season, and season dates can vary by zone, so always check the current regulations before hunting.
