save your money in Hawaii. For half the price you could fly to San Diego, fish multiple days, catch a butt ton more fish and ... get this... actually keep your fish.
and there are three people in my household. my freezer could have 270 geese, and 63 ducks and no law is broken. My friends love me at xmas because duck/goose sticks and choriso are a common gift. guys trying to earn their jr game warden badge on social media will always be damn funny
i do love hearing all the opinions of california from people who have hardly left the county they were born in in some eastern state. Yah our politics kind of suck...and if you spend any time in LA or SF you see more of that.. but most of the state is rural, farm or forest land with great...

i drew MMB three years ago and had a great hunt. Killed a really nice bull opening morning. It was so hot up there though that year. hunting elk in shorts and t-shirt was a new thing for me :)
got my c tag. it was my first choice i love hunting the high country in eastern butte county so it will always be myfirst choice. thought for sure this was my year for a sheep though :) maybe next year.
douche....
