Saturday is opening day for the recreational California salmon season off the coast. Declines in recent years have forced the cancellation of any salmon fishing since 2007.

The short sport season starts Saturday and is currently scheduled to last through the month of April.

For sport fishermen, it’s a chance to get back on the water after the conservation-driven closure. For commercial fisherman, whose season has yet to be scheduled, it’s hope that they, too, might be allowed to return to sea soon, should the recreational catch prove plentiful.

Last year, regulators counted 9,000 “jacks,” or a juvenile salmon, on the Sacramento run, up from 4,000 in 2008 and 2,000 in 2007.

Now is the time to enjoy our San Joaquin – Sacramento River Delta! Here is some info from one of my favorite websites…

The California Delta is a wonderful place to visit in any mode of transportation, but it is particularly suited to being experienced by boat. From cruisers to houseboats to gleaming yachts, you can see them showcased here. There are boats designed especially for fishing, water-skiing, anchoring out with plenty of room for family and friends, or for just plain going fast. You can choose from shiny fiberglass boats or classic wood boats. With over 1,000 miles of waterways to cruise, what are you waiting for? You’re sure to find the boat of your dreams right here!
