RE: roost hunting
i love wild turkey, but i would try to first hunt him during the morning or afternoon and use my skills to call him in...as the season goes and if i have had no success then i would consider hunting at his roosting area and seeing if i could get him in close enough, but i would use a bow and not a shotgun...JMO...
also in CA no hunting past 4pm...so you couldn't do it anyways
