Final reminder of California waters closing
This is a final reminder that many nearby California waters will close to fishing on Friday, November 15.
So if you want to fish any of them, you better hustle because you are rapidly running out of time.
Those waters will not re-open until the last Saturday in April next year (April 26, 2014), and that is a long, long time to wait to wet your line.
Here is a partial list of some of the nearby waters that will be closing:
Alpine County:
The East Carson River (with the exception of the stretch from Hangman’s Bridge downstream to the California/Nevada state line), the West Carson River, Markleeville Creek, Red Creek, Silver Creek and Wolf Creek.
The Bridgeport Area:
Bridgeport Reservoir, Hunewill Pond, Kirman Lake, Lundy Lake, Robinson Creek, Upper and Lower Twin Lakes, the Virginia Lakes area, the West Walker River and the Little Walker River.
The June Lake Loop:
Grant Lake, Gull Lake, June Lake and Silver Lake, plus Rush Creek.
Mammoth-Bishop Area:
Convict Lake, Convict Creek, Crowley Lake, Intake II, Mammoth Lakes Basin, North Lake, Sabrina Lake, South Lake, Weir Pond and Bishop Creek.
The Eastern Sierra Backcountry:
East Lake, Fremont Lake, Gilman Lake, Green Lake, Upper and Lower Hoover Lakes, Lane Lake, Leavitt Lake, Nutter Lake, Poore Lake, Roosevelt Lake, Saddlebag, Secret Lake, Summit Lake, Trumbull and West Lake, to name just a few of many hundreds.
Remember:
They are all closed after November 15.
