Ok before I go looking in the DFG regs wich is never easy. Can you hunt coyote at night if the land owner gives permission. My cousing has a pack of coyotes that he says only come around at night. and pretty regular. He told me bring a spot light and your gun and come kill the damn things. Just want to make sure it legal firstRobert

Yes its legal but you still need too check the regs some places is not allowed .The balance of the state i think is okay. 264.5. Use of Lights While Hunting--Remainder of State. Lights may be used, in those portions of the state not listed in Section 264, to take furbearers and nongame mammals under the following conditions only: (a) Only 9 volt lights or smaller, hand-held or worn on the head are permitted. (
Persons using such lights must be on foot. © Lights may not be used in or from a vehicle and may not be attached or powered from any source other than self-contained batteries. (d) A landowner or tenant suffering damage to livestock or other property by furbearing mammals or nongame mammals may designate, in writing, persons allowed by such landowner or tenant to use artificial lights in excess of 9 volts to assist in taking the depredating mammals. The landowner or tenants shall notify the closest fish and game office whenever furbearing or nongame mammals are taken under this authority. No furbearing or nongame mammals including any threatened, endangered or fully protected species may be taken contrary to any other prohibition set forth in these regulations. Certificate of Compliance as to 6-24-85 order transmitted to OAL 9-30-85 and filed 11-1-85.

Where is his property? In most areas on CA, yes it is legal. However, depending on where you are you ay be limited to using 9 volts or less in your light.The DFG only lists state boundaries for the spotlights, but none of the county regulations that might exist. If you do find you're in a legal area you will want a red lens for your light.
