** Note: It is only legal to keep hatchery steelhead and only in select waters. Hatchery steelhead are identified by a missing adipose fin and healed scar in the location of the missing fin. All wild steelhead must be released unharmed.
Check California Department of Fish and Game Regulations (www.dfg.ca.gov/regulations/) for salmon, steelhead, striped bass, and white sturgeon, including legal sizes, bag and possession limits, and seasons, which can vary from year to year.
Eating fish is good for your health. Fish have Omega-3s
that can reduce your risk for heart disease and improve how the brain develops in unborn babies and children.
The recommended serving of fish is about the size and thickness of your hand. Give children smaller servings.
