Tomorrow [Saturday March 31] marks the opening day of the spring wild turkey hunting season, and California's wild turkey population is hitting an all-time high. "We are expecting a good opener", said Dave Ebright at Chico Sportsmen's Den. "After two years of good hatches, there are a lot of birds in the area, and the weather looks favorable. A little breeze is good, but it will still be fairly warm. The birds will be on the ground early, so be prepared!"
