Just a quick update for all you salmon anglers wondering about the status of the inland salmon seasons for California’s Central Valley (Sacramento, Feather & American rivers): As you recall, the state Fish & Game Commission decided to delay its vote until May 5, which of course, has come and gone and we still don’t have a decision.
Apparently, the commission didn’t have a quorum (the minimum number of members necessary to conduct the business of the group) yesterday and had to once again put off the decision. In other words, we couldn’t get 3 of the 5 commissioners together on a call to make the final vote.
According to the Commission office, the next meeting is tentatively scheduled for May 20. In the meantime, business who rely upon the salmon and anglers who live for them have to wait before making any summer plans.
As Tom Petty once sang…”The waaaaaiting is the hardest part” will ring true for at least another week plus…
