Every January, California steelhead anglers are required by law to return their Steelhead Fishing Report and Restoration Cards to the DFG by mail. Starting this year, however, the DFG has set up an automated system to allow anglers to submit their info online.
The online submission option is a great one for guys like me who seem to be totally allergic to the Post Office. And, it’s a pretty basic process: Log on to the DFG website and then sign in. After that, you simply fill in your steelhead catch info off your card and hit “send.”

If you’d like a hands-on tutorial, the DFG will be at the Sacramento and San Mateo International Sportsmen’s Expos this month to show off the new system.
You need get your steelhead card into to the DFG (by mail or online) by Jan. 31, 2010.
