While California has endured many drought-affected river flows in recent years, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife is accepting comments over how low-flow fishing closures can be easier to access for anglers.

Here’s CDFW via a Facebook post:

CDFW is seeking input on a proposed fishing regulation change that would affect how anglers are notified of low-flow fishing closures on north coast, central coast, and south-central coast rivers, creeks and streams. CDFW is seeking to transition from three phone lines to a single CDFW webpage. This proposed regulation change would not impact where or when low flow related fishing closures occur. The questionnaire will take approximately 3 to 5 minutes to complete. The questionnaire will be available online at the link below through Feb. 18, 2024. We appreciate your participation and feedback.
