Key paragraph:

"Bonham told the Bee on Monday that only the rural eastern counties of Inyo and Mono have urged fisheries regulators to postpone their upcoming spring trout seasons to prevent thousands of anglers from arriving and spreading the virus to residents."

So similar to what many NH permanent residents on this forum have expressed, the local folks in those counties are worried about a ton of outsiders bringing in the virus. They've asked the fishing regulators for some delay, not cancellation. Just like Motorcycle week delay under consideration by the event organizers.
No fishing on Lake Winni? Even local residents can spread the virus...So no fishing for you! Or anyone else?
