Looks like the CDFW has decided to not open the season on the scheduled date of May 1st (low counts on the Klamath and the Sac). They will re-evaluate on the 15th but rumor has it, the season will not open this year. Also, now that the weather is having some windows of rest, and the crabbing has picked up, they will be shutting down crab season as well (whale entanglement)

 

Looks like I will be doing more camping than fishing!

It's not what we wanted to hear, but for a good reason.

Fort Peck in Montana has introduced land-locked Chinook Salmon that are doing quite well.

Oregon, as well…

 

Also, over the years a small number of lakes have been planted with land-locked Chinook and coho salmon. Some of these reservoirs include Detroit LakeGreen Peter Reservoir and Lost Creek Lake, among others.”

Kokannee, are even tastier…

They're also in Lake Tahoe.. Every October they spawn in the Fallen Leaf creek.

It's really something to watch them gather  in some of the pools of the stream.

And also watch the bears come down for a snack.

I love all the fresh water options and hit them when I can. All of them unfortunately are so far away from me. As I write this I look out at the sunset from my back deck over the ocean. I can feel the fish are there. As much as I love inland fishing, there is something magical to me about heading out before sunrise in the fog, only guided by GPS into the open waters of the ocean. Starting at just 7 miles off shore you can get into some quality Kings. We shall see what new information the next meeting in May holds.
