Default CA and Lead

John:

We were at Hastings Island, near Rio Vista. They plant birds, and so were allowed an extra few years to stop using lead.

Here is a quote from the CA Fish and Game Code:

Phase 2 – Effective July 1, 2016, non-lead shot will be required when taking upland game birds with a shotgun, except for dove, quail, snipe, and any game birds taken on licensed game bird clubs. In addition, non-lead shot will be required when using a shotgun to take resident small game mammals, furbearing mammals, nongame mammals, nongame birds, and any wildlife for depredation purposes.

Phase 3 – Effective July 1, 2019, non-lead ammunition will be required when taking any wildlife with a firearm anywhere in California.


Best, Patrick
