Hey guys! Currently I'm looking to move to Southern California, id be searching for a job as a project manager with a general contractor. Currently I live in OH, grew up in central PA. Been hunting the last 15 years of my life, since I've been 12. All my life I've done mostly tree stand hunting, some still hunting from time to time. I'm assuming the hunting out there is mostly spot and stalk? My dad and I both drew bull elk tags this fall and man do I love spot and stalk hunting out west! It beats sitting in a tree stand for 12 hours a day by yourself.
We are looking around the Los Angeles area but outside of it due to my hunting and I can't live in a city, but I don't mind commuting to work. I also have a chocolate lab that I run in hunt tests so being close to fields or ponds is also kinda of essential. And when I say close, within an hour drive is okay with me.
Anywho guess I'm just wondering how the hunting is out there, deer, turkey, pig, waterfowl, dove? And what towns outside of LA should I look into. I love small towns. Also have I heard that there's some good trout fishing? I grew up fly fishing trout in PA, something I've missed badly since I moved to Ohio.
Sorry this is so generic, just getting my feet wet investigating hunting in Southern California.
Here's my elk from this year
