Hi all. Please help. I am brand new to hunting and I am thoroughly confused with the California DFG booklets.

I live in the greater Bay Area and I' d like to go pig hunting, and deer hunting during the appropriate seasons. Does anyone know of wildlife areas that are in close(ish) proximity to the Bay Area that I can hunt in? Is there an easy guide out there as to where to hunt in Northern California?

I' m just confused about where I can hunt. The laws divide the state into zones, but that' s not as easy as a direct link to a certain place to hunt. Know what I mean? Let me know if you need more info.

Thanks in advance for help.

hey man, welcome.

There is everything you need to know. If your in the bay area, you are in A zone. Not a great place to hunt, but it will do. I hunt in B zone, near trinity. Long drive but it' s worth it. I' d spend more time typing here but I' m headed out the door.

On a side note to fellow californians; I got all my draw information in the mail today and the new point system looks sweet.

also if your still confused, go down to a gun shop or an outdoors store. I' m sure you can get some help or call the department of fish and game.
