California's spring turkey hunting season will open statewide on March 28, 2009. The general season will extend through May 3. Archers may hunt turkeys through May 17, and holders of Junior Hunting Licenses are permitted to hunt through May 17 with shotguns.
Is the taking of a turkey legal with a .22 rifle or does it have to be shotgun only?
FYI:
b. Spring Season - The last Saturday in March extending for 37 consecutive days c. Additional Spring Season for Hunters with Junior Hunting Licenses - The Saturday and Sunday preceding the opening day of the general spring turkey season; and the day following the close of the general spring turkey season extending for 14 consecutive days
Baq Limit:
1 bearded turkey per day, 3 per season. No person shall take more than a total of 3 turkeys during the general, archery, and additional season for junior hunters, combined. Possession Limit:
3 per season
(A bearded turkey is one having a beard visible through the breast feathers.)
