To make reservations select the "Reservations" tab on this page or visit ReserveCalifornia’s website at www.reservecalifornia.com.
Woodson Bridge State Recreation Area is a beautiful oak woodland park nestled along the Sacramento River between Chico and Red Bluff. Mount Shasta, Mount Lassen, and the Trinity Alps loom in the distance. A boat launch ramp located across the road in the county park makes for easy access to the river for those who enjoy water sports. A broad sand and gravel beach provides the opportunity to enjoy the sun and enjoy the Sacramento River. Another special feature of Woodson Bridge is the preserve. This dense native riparian forest is a winter home to the Bald Eagle and a summer nest site for the Yellow Billed Cuckoo. This jungle like grove displays some of the last remaining riparian habitat to be found in California. Over a hundred plant species have been identified throughout the park; the most prominent is the large valley oak.
Whale watching in Sonoma County parks 
Bring a picnic and relax or try your luck at fishing, all while keeping a ready eye out for cetaceans cruising by. Return the way you came, making for a one-mile hike. For a 1.9-mile loop back to your car, walk along the beach at low tide and return on the Shorttail Gulch Trail.

Perhaps the best-known whale watching spot in the area is nearby Bodega Head, part of Sonoma Coast State Park. On weekends from late winter through Mother's Day, volunteers are at Bodega Head to answer questions and share their knowledge of whales and the migration. 

Thanks to Bodega Harbor’s Spud Point Marina and the Sport Fishing Center, you can book a whale-watch boat trip that offers a chance to get noticeably closer to whales while remaining at a safe distance. Whale-watching boat trips are offered by Miss Anita Fishing Charters, Bodega Bay Sportfishing, Bodega Charters, or Fish On Charters.

Stay at least 1,000 feet away from active rookeries in order to prevent individual birds and colonies from abandoning their nests, and to assure that they return to their nest site each year. Human disturbance is the biggest cause of nesting failures. When to Watch Most active during dusk and dawn; abundant throughout the breeding season (mid-April to late-June) and the summer. Most migrate for the winter. Some will remain where there is open (unfrozen) water for foraging, such as along the lower Hudson River and the coast of Long Island.

Fishing
Doran and Westside parks feature boat launches on Bodega Harbor or fishing from shore. Spud Point Marina on the harbor is the center of the county's commercial fishing industry.
Sonoma County Regional Parks operates the Sport Fishing Center located across the harbor from Spud Point Marina within the private Porto Bodega Marina. The Sport Fishing Center is the only place in Bodega Bay where privately chartered fishing boats may dock for passenger loading and unloading.
Up the coast, Stillwater Cove attracts abalone divers and kayak fishers.  Gualala Point Regional Park offers seasonal fishing on the Gualala River.
Fishing in lakes, ponds, bay
Inland fishing options include ponds in Helen Putnam, Foothill and Riverfront parks and 72-acre Spring Lake, where you can fish for blue gill, bass, and sunfish. Hudeman Slough along San Pablo Bay attracts bass anglers.  
Bait
Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day, bait is available for purchase at the boat rental area at Spring Lake's Violetti Road entrance.
Don't forget to bring your California fishing license if you are 16 years or older.
Please practice Leave No Trace: Pack out all fishing lines and hooks. Discarded fishing lines and hooks cause unnecessary harm to birds and other aquatic wildlife. An accidentally swallowed fishing hook can lead to suffering and death.
