This is my annual reminder that a special window set aside for fishing begins on the Friday before Labor Day.
Sept. 2, 2011 is the Opening Day of the Lahontan Cutthroat Trout fishing season at Heenan Lake in nearby Alpine County, Calif.
Each year, that season opens the Friday before Labor Day and closes the last Sunday in October (October 30 this year).
If you’re interested and if you would like to enjoy a totally different fishing experience, plan to spend Sept. 02 at that easy-to-get-to location.

Spending on back-to-school supplies in Nevada will likely remain stagnant this year, but a jump in online sales could reduce the portion of state retailers.
A National Retail Federation (NRF) survey estimates 31.7 percent and 33.4 percent of families with K-12 children and college-aged students, respectively, will be doing most of their back-to-school shopping online. That is up over last year from 30.8 percent and 28.6 percent.
