If you are a fan of Bass in California.....Please Help

This is a Very important notice!

Led by the Central Valley Irrigators, the future of game fish in the Sacramento/SJ river systems are once again under attack. Despite co existing with native Salmonids for 150years and science showing that Striped and Black Bass predation are not the cause of native Salmonid decline (ALL fish #’s in the ecosystem are crashing) The Striper and Black Bass are once again used as scape goats for increased water exportations to grow water intensive crops in a desert environment. We have to look no further than the San Joaquin River itself as to what the future of the Sacramento River could look like. The SJ only 80 years ago had the largest runs of Spring Run Chinook Salmon on the planet. Now the entire run is extinct due to water diversion not predation. This has nothing to do with predation and is the latest attempt to grab more water for irrigation. On June 12th in Redding, the CA Fish and Game Commission will be meeting to vote on the future of Striped and Black Bass. BTW, all major fishing conservation organizations including those that are supporting Salmon, do not agree with the proposed changes. Please join the fight to protect our fisheries. If you love fishing in the state of CA, please get involved and show up to this meeting!! More information to come!!!

Last week at the Wildlife Resources Committee Meeting the department of fish and wildlife and Commission decided to push forth thru the committee to REPEAL the STRIPED BASS POLICY from 1996. Second to ADOPT the NEW DELTA MANAGEMENT POLICY which calls for strict protections for salmonids and listed fish only! This is the first step for removal and destruction of our delta bass fisheries and more! If repealed and adopted it will allow the commission to direct the department towards INCREASED bag limits and REDUCED size restrictions! We need your help to attend this meeting and speak your voice to continue the STRIPED BASS POLICY of 1996 and protect this fish and our industry. There will be no more protections for Stripers!

We will be announcing 3-4 locations with PAID TRAVEL BUSES to help get people to the location in Redding! These locations will be Martinez, Rio Vista, Sacramento and Yuba City/Colusa areas. Please reach out and help us with this fight and join today at NCGASA.org
