Message from the Board of Directors - May 2025

Greetings Rooster Tails!

Greetings Rooster Tails! Hopefully everyone is enjoying the warming weather. As temperatures rise so does the opportunity for catching fish. We just finished our May trip to the bay and are planning more trips for later in the year. Membership renewal is underway and hope you will join us for another year of fishing camaraderie. We look forward to seeing on the 16th and hope you find our speakers from the Save the Auburn Ravine Salmon and Steelhead inspiring.

Summer is coming around the corner with 90 degree weather in the forecast this week. Before long our green hills will be brown again. It's a great time to take advantage of the cool mornings while we still have them and get out on the water. Options for lake fishing close to home are diminishing as authorities continue to implement golden mussel measures. For those who got their boats inspected or decontaminated or tagged or 30 day quarantined for whichever body of water they prefer to fish those options are more limited. There are some lakes that area still on the self inspection protocol that are worth the drive though. I fished the Kokanee Power derby at Shasta last weekend, more on that to follow, and there were no restrictions. Up north Whiskeytown and Oroville are currently open as well. Locally the options Bullards Bar and Englebright are accepting boaters. Before heading out it's worth a call to the lake to confirm the status as things are changing frequently.
