Last fall surveys found nearly record low numbers of chinook salmon making the journey to spawn in the Sacramento River and tributaries.
California's vote follows a decision last week by federal regulators to close most of Oregon coast and all of the California coast to commercial and sport fishing for salmon. Another meeting has been scheduled by the California Fish and Game Commision for May 9 to consider whether salmon fishing will be permitted in the states rivers this year.
The chinook spawning run to the Sacramento river is usually one of the most..... |
