Here is the fishing report for Northern Nevada, Northern California, Southern Oregon and the Sierra for the week of March 23 through March 30:

The film "Unknown," currently playing at the Fandango Galaxy multiplex in Carson City, is the kind of movie one wonders if anyone really read the script before proceeding.

Here is the Fishing Report for the week of Feb. 16-23:

ALMANOR LAKE, CALIF:
Shasta Cascade Wonderland Association (530) 365-7500 www.shastacascade.com reported:
Current water surface temperatures are at 35.5 degrees with water clarity at 7.5 feet. It has been sunny all week as forecasted. With the afternoon highs moving into mid to low 50s, and more sunshine is on the way, with the next possibility of some rain near mid week.

Winter is the time of year that seems to go on forever. Shorter daylight hours, cold temperatures and house-bound kids. And if you do go outside you wear so many clothes your knees won't bend.
What type of exercise would tempt you to brave the cold --- Sledding! Remember when you were young and fresh snow was an exciting part of your day? I’ll bet as you aged you lost sight of all that fun. Just imagine the calories you can burn when you force yourself to have fun with a sled!

A Christmas Carol play-along will be held on Monday, Dec. 20, from 11 a.m. to noon at the Carson Mall.
The play-along is open to all string players (violin, viola, cello, bass). Check in is at 10:30 a.m. Bring your own music stand, and dress in Christmas attire. Free admission includes cookies and punch afterward. Call Sue Jesch for reservations and sheet music at (775) 450-5584.

Yep, I got to the Carson Community Center a 7:30 p.m. Friday night, ready to enjoy the Western Nevada musical "White Christmas." Big show, big cast, great music.

But the audience didn't show up. No one but me, except for Stephanie Arrigotti, producer and director and her cast of thousands.I then realized the the WNMCC opens its shows on Saturdays rather then Fridays.

So what, I was there, the orchestra was warming up, the actors were on stage, the house lights were dimmed and there were plenty of seats, so I sat to enjoy a private preview, the dress rehearsal.

It's 1924 on the cruise ship The CMNN Princess Royal ... and there's murder afoot!
Bring your investigative skills... your appetite... your wallet... and be prepared to laugh your way through an evening of mystery and suspense where you solve the crime.
So dress up in your best Flapper finery; Sit at the table of Captain Robert Crowell; Enjoy the Mystery and Silent Auction; And help support your Children's Museum.
Mystery Dinner Theater, Silent Auction, and Specialty Drink Bar
At the Children's Museum, 813 N. Carson Street

The thing about attending a masquerade ball is that you don't have to worry if you show up late because no one will ever know anyway.
