CA Regulations / Re: 2024 Nearshore Rockfish Season Survey
« on: January 20, 2024, 12:52:30 PM »
Hey Johnny good to see you. I was at the meeting with the biologist who is drafting these regs. He says they are open to continuous or staggered nearshore months. They suggested around 4-6 months is the negotiable range.
For me personally, the ideal would be May - October continuous nearshore. Least swells and wind, and still catches a good chunk of big ling season (fall-winter). If that's not possible, then maybe May - July and Sept-Nov. Again that's just my personal preference.
In any case, I'm encouraged by how willing the CDFW was to hear our points and work with us to hopefully get us a decent season in 2024.
