Waterfowl Hunting Clinic Offered in Colusa County

As waterfowl season quickly approaches, the Department of Fish and Game (DFG) is offering a clinic for hunters in Colusa County on August 15.

Two experienced instructors, Assistant Chief Mike Carion and Warden Aaron Freitas, will lead this clinic, which is part of DFG’s Advanced Hunter Education program. Students will learn about decoy placement, blind design, ballistics, calling, duck identification, K-9 considerations, gear and garb, game care and cleaning, cooking tips and safety. All skill levels are welcome to attend.

The clinic will be held at the Wilderness Unlimited RV Park in Williams from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The cost is $40 for adults; children 16 years and younger are free but must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Participants can register online at www.dfg.ca.gov/huntered/advanced or request a registration form by mail by calling (916) 358-4356. Once registered, participants will be provided with a workshop agenda, a map to the facility and a list of items to bring.
