Fishing Reports – You will see a
revamped and expanded fishing report section on our web site with more
photos, updated reports, audio reports on our companion 976-FRESH site,
and more background and links on individual waters to you can get more
information on a location from our site in 2009. We plan to keep our
Southern California fishing reports the most up-to-date and most
comprehensive available on the Internet.

Hunting Reports – Our hunting
reports will expand in 2009 to include more than just our weekly
waterfowl reports.
Upland Birds: You will find more information on upland bird hunting (on
our Western Birds newsletter portion of the site), including hunting
forecasts, updated information during the season, and reports and photos
from readers and newsletter subscribers. We also plan to begin selling
digital USGS quad maps with guzzlers, stock tanks, and spring locations
marked and GPS coordinates included for desert bird hunters. We promise
the cost will be less than printed maps – without the water information.
Big Game Hunting: Our coverage of California big game hunting will
expand in 2009 with more stories on first deer, big bears, trophy bucks,
bighorn sheep, tule elk, wild boars – all the big game California has to
offer. We will include information on individuals who’ve taken these
animals, top places to hunt them, and forecasts for different zones and
hunts. We’re also going to include information on out-of-state
regulations, hunting application deadlines, and the best opportunities,
so we can be your one-stop clearing house for this information.
