General Info....
First, welcome aboard. Lots of good info on this BB. I'm going to start in a general way. Others will undoubtedly provide more detailed info.
The area you live in has access to a lot of fishing, the Delta, valley rivers (Mokelumne nearest) and valley, foothill reservoirs and ponds. There're some foothill streams that're open year round for Trout. The lower Mokelumne (below Camanche) has some Steelhead, The American has Salmon, Shad, Steelhead and Stripers. The Delta has almost everything in it at one time or another. Altho, it's most easily fished from a boat. Several guides in the area fish the Delta and that's a good choice if you don't have a boat. There're other opportunities on the west side of the valley. Most of the high country is closed to fishing by regulation or ice. So, you'll have to wait a while for that.
If you're a AAA member, you can get fairly detailed maps of the area (all free) to check out opportunities/distances. Also, don't forget to check out the Reports Section in the bar at the top of this page.
Enjoy the exploration and good luck.
