Hello fellow anglers. Hard to believe that opening day fishing season in California is only four weeks away. One thing we can all plan on is, all the back country lakes and roads will not be open until June or July.

Opening day will be on April 27th this year, and with our rain and snow totals, there will be plenty of water everywhere.

The weatherman says Sunday is going to be warm and sunny; so come out to the Foundation for Carson City Parks and Recreation’s monthly open house, Sunday afternoon at the Wungnema House, from 2 to 5 p.m. There is no admission fee, and all are welcome.
