Fishing In The Sierras 


Hey all!

Spring time means fishing time in the Sierra Nevada’s!
If you are new to fishing, familiarize yourself with the wealth of knowledge below:

Are you looking to try fishing or only foresee yourself going once, maybe twice this year? Not a problem.

Try if you can, to work July 6th, or September 7th into your busy calendar. These are the two days a year that you can fish without carrying a fishing license. But, like everything in life, there’s a few exceptions or distinctions to note. We won’t bore you, click here to learn more.

Okay, so you needed both hands to lift up your calendar weighed down with appointments and To-do’s; and you can’t make these dates. Sacrebleu! (You know, the French curse ‘sacred blue.’…it means the ocean? Oh never mind.)

Well don’t cha worry ’bout a ting. The California Department of Fish & Wildlife offers licenses for as short as one, two, or ten days for a reduced amount.





If you are fifteen years old and are reading this between nose-picking and angry birds; Congrats! Anyone under the age of 16 does not need to purchase a license. Now back to playing angry birds.

Everyone over the age of 16, you can purchase your fishing license at various sporting retail locations, CDFW Sale offices, or of course on the inter-web. (George Bush slang for: the world wide web.)





Once you have your license, you no longer have to make a fashion statement of wearing it on your person, above the waist. The law requiring this silliness went away in 2010.

Your license is valid for a calendar year January 1st through December 31st, or for the rest of the year following the date of purchase.

That’s all for now, get your tackle box together!
