The California Department of Fish and Wildlife will host a series of statewide meetings to inform the public and seek input on the proposed new statewide changes for trout fishing regulations.
"The California Fish and Game Commission directed our department to make the regulations and seasons more simple and easy to understand, while continuing to protect and manage the state's trout resources," said Roger Bloom, CDFW Inland Fisheries Program manager. "We look forward to explaining how these new changes came about, and how they could be implemented."
The meetings will focus on the following key areas:
– Objectives of the new regulation framework and species management goals;
– Parameters of the regulation standardization and consolidation process;
– Review of specific proposed changes to regulations.
CDFW personnel will be available at information stations to answer questions and listen to stakeholder interests, needs and ideas.
All stakeholder input will be taken into consideration as a regulation simplification package is developed for formal public review through the California Fish and Game Commission.

LOWER LAKE, Calif. – Anderson Marsh State Historic Park continues to hold free monthly guided nature walks.
The next walk will begin at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday, March 9.
There will not be a tour of the historic ranch house after the walk. Rain will cancel the walk.
This month’s nature walk will be led by park docent and retired Park Ranger Tom Nixon, who asks that participants arrive at the parking lot by 8:15 a.m. so they can have time to explore the wildlife found in the ranch house yard. The guided walk will explore the Ridge Trail.
The precise route taken will depend on the weather and the condition of the trails. Participants should bring binoculars if they have them, and wear sturdy shoes and a hat.
Anderson Marsh State Historic Park is located on Highway 53, between Lower Lake and Clearlake.
