Thank you @Project_Upland for recognizing the numerous & varied upland bird hunting opportunities California has to offer. "Bring your shotgun, plenty of shells, and a fashionable pair of sunglasses . . . because it’s looking bright out here." https://t.co/wVDdYs6FwU
We're so glad California could help Boise, Idaho's Stephen Veals accomplish his goal of fishing 365 days a year in 2018. In his quest, Stephen caught a golden trout while in California, our freshwater state fish: #HeritageTrout https://t.co/jVgJ6VAY3L
Great story in the San Francisco Chronicle today on our inspiring colleague "Jen the Archer," who is leading the statewide effort to recruit more hunters and anglers in California. https://t.co/Ub6zA3LQPx
Heads up CA turkey hunters. I'm seeing lots of lead turkey loads for sale in the corporate chain retail stores. Lead-free ammo is required almost everywhere for the upcoming spring turkey season in CA. #GetYourTom#SpringGobblers#TurkeySeason#LeadFree
More than happy to welcome the hipsters and foodies to the hunting fraternity. However, growing up in an Italian-American family, I can tell you hunting has long been about good food and family for us and many others: https://t.co/zosIYm1hn0
Our fisheries staffers are out in the Delta collecting big black bass for the display tank at this week’s @SportsExpoSac. A few 10-pounders in the live wells already.
We're hiring - and looking for a couple of Wildlife Habitat Assistants to work in the Suisun Marsh and the Sac-San Joaquin Delta. The first step is to apply to take the Wildlife Habitat Assistant Exam by Jan. 31. More information at https://t.co/Fy1DUKmznX #CDFWBayDeltaRegion3
My kids have set something of a family record this Christmas break from school by visiting three Sacramento Valley wildlife areas/refuges to ogle at all the ducks, geese and other birds. And they've done this mostly on their own accord! #YoloBypass#ColusaNWR#CosumnesRiver
Time off for the holidays is well spent at the Colusa National Wildlife Refuge where the Auto Tour Route offers great, close-up views of the thousands of ducks and geese that have arrived in the Sacramento Valley.
There are few who are better than Californians @Hank_Shaw and Holly Heyser at articulating how hunting and fishing uniquely connect us to nature and that hunting "is a real good way to get better food than what you are eating right now." https://t.co/4aqy5ct1DX via @YouTube
Did you know that CDFW has its own wildlife forensics team? Increasingly, CDFW’s Wildlife Forensics Laboratory is being counted on to protect some of the most sensitive animal species on the planet: https://t.co/kaTEl8GFbE
How many salmon can you spot? Chinook salmon are returning to the Mokelumne River to spawn at near-record numbers, testament to a healthy river habitat and innovative salmon hatchery management. @ebmud
CA's wild pheasant season opens Sat and my goal is to take one rooster from each of the four one-time prime areas of the state -- Bay/Delta, Sac Valley, San Joaquin Valley, and Klamath Basin. Starting in Sac Valley this weekend. #RoosterRoadTrip
Second work trip to Moss Landing. Had to stop at Phil's Fish Market after hearing so much about it. Noticed the Sicilian heritage of the family owners and had to roll with the cioppino for an early dinner. #
No visit to the Monterey area is complete without a stop at our Elkhorn Slough, today designated as a wetland of global importance by the international community. And did we mention the great kayaking, hiking and birding? #Ramsar#GlobalWetlandOutlook
