Sportfishing Weekends
Due to the wildfire situation, all fishing derbies and other events to promote the free fishing weekend planned for Saturday-Sunday, June 3-4 are cancelled. Anglers are encouraged to stay home and stay safe this weekend. We will look at other opportunities to promote sportfishing and its benefits at a later time.
