Fishing Permits
The State of California requires anglers to hold a valid fishing permit. If you are 16 or older, you need a license. Fishing licenses are available at most sporting goods stores and marinas. There are restrictions: Generally the catch limit is 5 in the lakes and two in the streams. Anglers in the wild streams are encouraged to "catch and release." Some fishing also restricts the type of equipment you may use. A basic license is for using one rod at a time. For more detailed information on hunting and fishing in California, contact the California Department of Fish and Game.
