Get the fish and game waterfowl reg book, all sporting good shops have them for free. Look at the public land section it is divided into regions. There are a few type a and b areas that open up to coon hunting after duck season. Like the grasslands and mendota.

It's been 20yrs or more since I coon hunted , But use to tree a lot of coon in the wildlife area along I-5 and Hwy 12. You can run it all year long till the foxtails get to bad and I'd run more then one dog a lot of water and them big delta coon will take one dog under quick. Be ready to get wet, I do remember wading and swimming a lot to get to the dogs.
