Message from the Board of Directors - July 2025

Greetings Rooster Tails!

Hello everyone. Our speaker for the monthly breakfast meeting is Michael Memola, a Heritage and Wild Trout Biologist for CDFW. As the summer heats up, Michael will be sharing information on fishing opportunities in our area as well as techniques for putting local fish in your box. Most of us are seasoned anglers but perhaps there will be a trick or two to pick up. Join us for our monthly breakfast on the 18th. We look forward to seeing you.

 Well the summer ocean salmon season came and went with the opener creating great opportunities for those who found the fish. As predicated, a good weekend of fishing would crush the 7,000 fish quota. CDFW data shows that 9,165 chinook were caught on the opening weekend. The next chance for ocean salmon will be Sept 4-7 when 7,500 salmon will be available. With good weather it will be a wash, rinse, repeat situation so you better get your plans in order if you want a chance at fresh ocean run salmon. River salmon opens on the Feather, Mokelumne, and American on July 15th. Check the CDFW updated freshwater fishing regulations online for details. Of course the mussels still require some navigating to access local lakes.
