Shamrock Ranch

Overview

The miles of grassy trails that skirt the ridge tops teem with dense coveys of Mountain and California quail and increasing numbers of ruffed grouse have been noted in recent years with the decline of predators. The ranch enjoys one of the largest populations of Russian wild boar in Mendocino county. Flocks containing as many as two dozen wild turkeys are commonly seen feeding along the slopes on the western side of the ranch. Several deep water ponds are stocked with large mouth bass and fish as large as ten pounds are frequently landed. In the warm summer evenings catfish and crappie can be caught along the rocky shoreline.
