William G. & Erma, CA

Adam, Matt and I tried this area again on Sunday. Adam got the first rabbit up in a small row of trees. Chip got on the scent late and couldn't get things to go his way. I got the second one up and Chip was on it pretty quick. He ran it around to the north and then back west. It must have holed, or Chip lost the scent in the woods. We did kick a covey of quail up. I'm sure this is the same covey we got up on Friday. Seems like there were about 6 or so that got up. We didn't get any rabbits, but it was a good day.

Chip and I went out by ourselves. This was our first hunt of the year. Hunted 2 areas. The first place was on the backside of the area off of CR-210. Stop at the second parking area. We walked the field west of the parking area. Only got one rabbit up, but the area looks promising. I kicked the rabbit up. The grass was so thick I couldn't see the rabbit, just the grass move. Chip got a late jump, but chased it in a full circle before he lost it through a hog wire fence. We did kick some quail up in this area. There were about 10 birds that got up. The second area we hunted was west of the main lake. We didn't see any rabbits and there were a lot of hunters in the area.
CONDITIONS: Got very warm in the afternoon (67°F).
