Cal. Fish & Game Code § 9029.5 — Fishing Lines is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.
Notwithstanding Sections 9025.5, 9026, and 9029, it is unlawful to use set lines, vertical fishing lines, or troll lines to take fish for commercial purposes within one mile of the nearest point of land on the mainland shore in Fish and Game District 7 or 10 from sunset on Friday to sunset on the following Sunday or from sunset of the day before a state recognized legal holiday until sunset on that holiday. For the purposes of this subdivision, a “set line” is a fishing line that is anchored to the bottom on each end and is not free to drift with the tide or current and a “vertical fishing line” is a fishing line that is anchored to the ocean bottom at one end and attached at the other end on the surface to a fishing vessel or a buoy. This section does not apply to the taking of salmon or California halibut for commercial purposes.
