Napa Valley Register

The Napa Valley Register is a daily newspaper based in Napa, California, with its roots tracing back to August 10, 1863. Initially, it was named the Napa Valley Register, but by 1864, it shortened its name to the Napa Register, only to revert to its original title more than a century later. In its early days, the newspaper focused on a community that was primarily known for wheat farming rather than wine production, making it quite different from what readers see today. The Register served as a platform for various content, including gossip, stories, opinions, moral lessons, quotes, propaganda, entertainment, and, occasionally, serious news. It was one of the two leading newspapers in early Napa.

1 week ago | napavalleyregister.com | Barry Eberling

When Martin Perales and Paul Blank go fishing on the Napa River, the fish barely stand a chance. The two men don't use a fishing rod. They use a rotary screw trap — a rotating funnel, 8 feet across, that floats half-submerged between metal pontoons and traps fish. But their work isn't about sports fishing. Perales and Blank work for the Napa County Resource Conservation District, and they are counting fish for science. They are giving the Napa River a health checkup.
