Dave,

You can also watch the weekly fishing reports from the local newspaper for your son's area. Here's a link to the current report:

They show up in the Sports section on Thursdays during fishing season. The current one is usually available without registering at that site.

Also, if your son hasn't seen a copy of "Fishsniffer", he should drop by Mel Cottons (a sporting goods store in San Jose...not far from where he lives)...they carry it back in the fishing dept. Or, you can drop by their web site. Lots of online maps for places to fish in CA and their printed version carries summaries of most of the state...
