Interested in predator hunting - areas surrounding Sacramento

[jschuff32]

Looking to possibly do some predator hunting with my son this year, but not sure where to begin. (I've got an e-caller and decoy.)

Already searched here on CG but couldn't find much regarding my region. Anyone have any advice for public land areas within 1 hour or so of Sacramento for calling in predators, primarily coyotes? Thanks.

I don't think that you can hunt predators at the Oreville State Wildlife Area, it is shotgun only, deer, upland, small game, hogs, turkey, etc.

Link to BLM action near you:

Oh and DFW and the BLM have headquarters in Sacto, take you son on a trip there, I think the USGS has an office there too, good for maps or just touring.

The eldo is pretty much lousy with them your'e trying to hunt deer but my guess is that that isn't much food up there for them now.

After things start trying to have babies in the spring they will be there for sure.
Watch your back, other stuff comes to ecalls too.

I'm seeing more and more coyotes on the move. A puma can leep 40 feet down down from a tree without injury.

Anywhere it's legal to hunt, you will find coyotes.

You just have to do your part. They're smart and 'wiley'.

Thanks for your input. Now if we can just get past all this rain. Cabin fever's starting to set in. [emoji30]

Try the ranchers in the Plymouth area. Not much pressure there and lots and lots of fairly large cattle/sheep ranches. DFG might have a few names and numbers for you to call. Might even afford yourself a turkey hunt, or two. The ranches closer to Sac are already "taken" by predator hunters.
