I wanted to clarify an answer I had provided previously on CA salmon fishing.
Salmon fishing throughout CA is NOT closed. It is only closed in ocean waters as regulated by DFG and FGC. Currently, you cannot target salmon in those waters.
Salmon fishing in anadromous rivers is NOT closed. You can target salmom; however, you cannot keep salmon. It is currently a "catch and release" only fishery. In certain parts of the state rivers (ie. upper Sacramento, Klammath, etc.) take was allowed, under certain provisions and/or only during designated times. DFG has urged people not to target salmon in these water ways - if too much targeting is witnessed, then DFG/FGC may push to have all fishing shut down in those systems.
Fishing for landlocked salmon is NOT closed. (ie. Folsom Lake, CA) Landlocked salmon fisheries are not closed, and do not have the same regulations and catch provisions as the other waters.
In the previous answer, I was only referring to salmon fishing in rivers - not the ocean. Sorry for the confusion. (I know my regs well, but I apparently didn't explain my answer well enough.....)
