2011 Fishing Licenses
You have probably heard
by now that California De-
partment of Fish and Game
is implementing a new auto-
mated system for fishing
and hunting licenses. Over
time this system should be a
big improvement for both
the department and the :
hunters and anglers.
Licenses are available
through the new system at a
& J's Grizzly Store and
Camping Resort at Lake
Davis (open Friday - Sun-
day), Fuel Star in Quincy
and The Sports Nut in
Chester. Wiggin's Trading
Post in Chilcoot hopes to
have their system up and
running by Jan. 20.
Another nice feature is
that the new system makes
it possible to buy your li-
cense online. I bought my li-
cense from the comfort of
my own home. I found the
system to be very user-
friendly. It takes approxi-
mately two weeks for the of-
ficial license to arrive in the
mail, but I was able to down-
load and print a temporary
license immediately.

International Sportsmens
Exposition
If you have never been to
the Sportsmens Exposition
before, I highly recommend
it. The Sportsmens Expo is
coming to Cal Expo in Sacra-
mento Jan. 20 - 23. It is a bit
like Disneyland for the out-
door enthusiast.
There will be hundreds of
exhibitors that cover the en-
tire range of outdoor prod-
ucts and destinations, in-
cluding guides and resorts
from all over the country
and beyond. There will be
dozens of demonstrations,
competitions and seminars.
Several of our local guides
will be there including
Bryan Roccucci of Big Dad-
dy's Guide Service, Tom
Maumoynier of Lake A1-
manor Fly Fishing Company
and Doug Neal of Almanor
Adventures. Doug will be
presenting a seminar on
"Trolling and stillfishing tech-
niques for Lake Almanor and
beyond." The seminar will be
in the California Sportsmens'
Theater on both Thursday and
Friday. I am not going to miss
that one. I am also looking for-
ward to several of the semi-
nars in the Fly Fishing The-
ater.
