Frequently Asked Questions
What hunting opportunities does California recreational land offer?
Hunting for black tailed deer in the coastal mountain ranges and Sierra Nevada foothills is great across the state. According to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife wild pig hunting is open all year on private land with no daily bag limit which makes it the most reliable hunting activity you can do on your property. You can also hunt Tule elk on private ranches especially in the Inner Coast Range. Valley quail and Gambel quail hunting is fantastic in the foothills and Central Valley. Ring necked pheasant hunting is also very good on managed private farms in the Central Valley. Finally duck and goose hunting on private flooded rice fields in the Sacramento Valley is some of the absolute best waterfowl hunting in the whole country.
How is trout fishing access on California private land?
Owning private spring creek and river frontage in Northern California gives you some of the most valuable fishing real estate in the western United States. According to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, streams like Hat Creek, Fall River, Pit River and the McCloud River are globally famous for huge wild rainbow and brown trout. Properties that sit right on these cold spring-fed rivers are extremely rare and sell for massive premiums. The Sacramento River, Trinity River and Smith River get huge runs of steelhead and salmon, which makes private land along those waters highly desirable. The great weather in California means you can fish these northern rivers pretty much all year long.
What makes Sacramento Valley waterfowl hunting on private land so popular?
The Sacramento Valley sits right in the middle of the Pacific Flyway. According to Ducks Unlimited, the mix of flooded rice fields, managed wetlands and the Suisun Marsh creates perfect winter habitat for millions of ducks and geese every single year. Private duck clubs that manage rice fields in Sacramento, Glenn, Colusa and Yolo counties offer hunting that consistently ranks as the best in America. Getting access to this kind of hunting on private water is very hard and very expensive. This makes privately owned land with good water pumps and levees in these counties some of the most prized recreational land in California.
