California Quail Hunting Information
With a continued drought in most areas of the state, California is one western state that is only looking at an average hunting season. Mountain quail and Gambel's quail hunting is expected to be up to par, while California quail and chukar hunting will be par to slightly below par. For California quail, consider the Panoche Hills of Fresno County, eastern Kern County and the western Mojave Desert (San Bernardino County). For Mountain quail, look to the forested habitats in the Sierra Nevada, Cascade Range, and Del Norte, Humboldt and Siskiyou Counties. Gambel's quail can be found in the Draper wash and other washes draining into the Colorado River in eastern Imperial and Riverside Counties. And finally, the best bets for chukars are Eastern Kern, Lassen, and Modoc counties and in the western Mojave Desert area of San Bernardino County. At last count, California upland hunters harvested over 382,000 California quail, nearly 105,000 Mountain quail, nearly 44,000 Gambel's and over 37,000 chukars. * Season Dates: Varies, consult regulations * Daily Bag / Possession Limits: 10 / 20
