Additional California fishing information for this week

Reminder: The new recreational season structure for the groundfish/rockfish season went through it’s first phase update. Anglers above the N 36°latitude can now fish shoreward of the 20 fathom line. This essentially opens up rockfish/groundfish opportunities for kayak anglers. New bag limits, boundaries, timetable and regulations (like requirements to have descending devices on board) apply. To learn more, check out our overview.Source: CDFW
