Salmon season set to open April 7

The ocean salmon season is set to open April 7 from Pt. Arena to the Mexican border.
On February 17, the recreational ocean salmon season opened north of Point Arena to Horse Mountain.
The DFG reminds anglers that both areas have a daily bag and possession limit of two salmon. The retention of coho salmon is prohibited.
There is a minimum size limit of 20 inches. Anglers may not use weights exceeding 4 pounds. Only two single-point, single-shank barbless hooks may be used to take salmon north of Pt. Conception, and anglers may not use more than one fishing rod and/or line. In addition, barbless circle hooks must be used when fishing between Pt. Conception and Horse Mountain.
For more info, check the DFG Ocean Salmon Hotline (707) 576-3429 and http://www.dfg.ca.gov/mrd/oceansalmon.html
