Rattlesnakes

[0311raiders]

I'm new to the forum thing. But I can't get a straight answer from anybody out here. I called the fish and game, and forest service. No one will give me straight answer. Back home in Minnesota we can catch as many rattlesnakes as we want. But no one knows about California. Does any of yahl got any fulfillment to my question? Because I really want to make some rattler chilli mmmm yummy.

Welcome to the forums
Rattlers in Minnesota. Are they frozen? ;D
There is a guy on here goes by Snake Charmer I'm betting he knows the answer.

Lol yes "Minnesnowta" we got the Timber Rattlesnake. I find them all the time in the bluffs of the Mississippi River. And thanks for the info.

You can legally take rattlesnakes for eating without a hunting license in California:

California State Rules and Regulations Regarding Hunting and Collecting California Reptiles and Amphibians for March 1, 2012 - February 28, 2013.

Funny how the regs for this would be in fishing. What a weird state lol. Pretty good Duck hunting though. IDk about these turkeys by being all on private land. But figures decent amount of hunters out here.

I believe the collection of reptiles requires a valid fishing license.

I wouldn't be surprised!

No license required in Ca for buzztails, possession limit is two per day, check your local reg's for different laws
