April 30 is the official CA trout opener for many streams and some lakes too.

This is me in Hat Creek near the Carbon Bridge area for the opener in 1976. I remember hooking a nice ~16 hot Rainbow right after that picture. It was running and jumping and I had the reel handle catch in the sleeve of my raincoat and broke me off.
