My local river fishes best in January, most years. This year it was a
raging torrent and I never even bought a license.

Last friday, my buddy with a fly shop told me the water had just been
dropped. I drove the 7miles down there and sure enough, it looked low
enough to drift and expect to catch some fish. So I went and spent the
$45+ to get a license.

I don't go out on weekends (anti-social tendencies ), unless forced to, but
I packed and planned a float for Monday. Starting Sunday night and into
Monday it rained hard again, too hard to want to go out fishing. Today the
river is back at 4 times the flow that I consider fishable .... hope Arnold
can find a good use for my money.



Maybe I'm missing something............


Don't the funds from your license go to the Game and Fish Department?

Isn't this a good thing?

So now you're not going to fish anywhere in CA for the rest of the year?
