SAC Updates

SAC continues to be instrumental in preserving the future of Southern California sportfishing. We continue to work on issues surrounding the PFMC and Rockfish Closures and Restrictions; the Channel Islands Closures, the ever-present California Sea Lion problems and our ongoing work with the Mexican government regarding permit and resource issues. Below are recent updates that have appeared on our website regarding our involvement in Legislative and Regulatory Issues. The better informed every angler is, the better chance we have to protect sportfishing for future generations!
