Just in: Sonoma abalone fishery closed for the year

Sounds like some people here got what they wanted. The fishery in Sonoma is now closed through the year. I don't see why they had to close Sea Ranch and Gualala. Mendo is going to see some pressure now. My guess is this emergency closure will be used as serious ammo by the greens to further restrict next year's season.

Thats just plain bullshit.

Wonder if I can get  refund for an unused ab card?
Just plain stupid.
Like Mother Nature has never done this before.

Just fu#$%ng stinks!!! DFG is trying to nuch to restrict the man from doing anything anymore unless their pockect are lined with kickbacks!

F*ck!!!!!!!

 

 

Total BS!! Mendo is gonna get blasted now

To amend my first post - Gualala is in Mendo so it will remain open.

Shit! Glad I filled more than half my card!  .

If hundreds and hundreds of dead rockfish were washing up on the shores, I'd support a rockfish closure.

Just sayin'....

They do all the time Dustin, we need to watch what we say!...... 




My bad not rockfish but fish in general..

ya but they would open it up next year. I doubt you will ever see ab season open again on the Sonoma coast.

You cats know a lot more about that than I do, but shutting it down for good would definitely be pretty lame. I definitely do not agree with that.

I hope that's not the case for you guys.

I was sick of eating abalone anyway 

Weak sauce!!!
