Rule Type/ No. Category Proposed Rule Changes 1S Consistency Page 5 - General Statewide Regulations Change Free Fishing Weekend Dates. Existing Rule: Free fishing weekend falls on the Saturday and Sunday immediately following the first Monday in the month of June. Proposed Rule: Free fishing weekend will fall on the first full weekend (Saturday and Sunday) in the month of June. Rationale: This change simplifies the regulation for the date of Free Fishing Weekend. This aligns Free Fishing Weekend with Oregon Parks and Recreation’s State Parks Day, National Fishing & Boating Week, National Trails Day and other activities by state and federal agencies and organizations to encourage outdoor recreation. (David Lane, IE) 2S Enforcement Page 8 - Statewide Definitions Add new definitions for “bobber” and “leader” as part of proposed new See also Trask anti-snagging rules on Trask and Salmon rivers. River and Existing Definitions: None Salmon River Proposed Definitions: proposals. Bobber: A hook-less, floating device that is attached to or slides along the mainline or leader above the hook(s) for the purpose of suspending hook(s) (which are part of the bait, lure or fly) off the bottom of the stream and visually signaling (from the surface of the water) a fish’s strike at the hook(s). Leader: A section of line, other than the mainline, extending from the lowermost hook (part of bait, lure, or fly) to the first swivel, weight, bobber, or any other attachment. Rationale: These definitions would apply to bobber fisheries being proposed by staff for the Trask and Salmon rivers. For sections of the Trask River in vicinity of Trask Hatchery which is a holding area for adult hatchery spring Chinook and on a section of the Salmon River (Lincoln Co.) where snagging is a chronic activity.

  • State Highway Department
    Description of WOrk of the State Highway Department in the Counties of the State 1923 -1924 BAKER COUNTY There was less activity in highway constructjon in Baker County dur- ing the biennium just past than in previousyears. However, the main trunk line highway known as the Old Oregon Trailwas completed during this period, and some work was doneon the Baker-Cornucopia and the Baker-Unity Highways. The work on the Baker-Cornucopia Highway involved theconstruction of the grade down the Powder River Canyon, which eliminated the high Sparta summit and materially improved existing communicationbetween the Eagle and Pine Valleys and Baker.However, there still remains a very bad section between Middle Bridge and Love Bridge, and the section between Black Bridge and Richland, through the Dry Gulch country, is impassable to automobile traffic during the spring of theyear. On the Baker-Unity Highway the gradeon both sides of Dooley Moun- tain was completed. Those who were forced to travel the old mountain grade, which was narrow, crooked, and in places reacheda gradient of 22 per cent, will appreciate traveling over thenew highway now open to traffic. The total length of grading completed in Baker County during the past biennium was 18.11 miles, of which 8.95 mileswere surfaced. in addition to this work there were 25.90 miles surveyed. The Baker County bond issue of 1918, amounting to $500,000,was in- sufficient to meet the State in cooperating to complete the state highways through the county, and on November 4, 1924,an additional $500,00G was voted to complete the Baker-Cornucopia and the Baker-Unity High- ways.

FULTON, Fishery Biologist Bureau of Commercial Fisheries 'Biological Laboratory Seattle, Washington 98102 ABSTRACT Chinook salmon, the most abundant species of salmon in the Columbia Basin, formerly spawned in nearly a11 tributaries ofthe Columbia River and in many areas of the main river. Over the past 60 years, the construction of dams has inundated, impeded, or blocke.d acces!, to spawning areas. Despite these heavy losses, large areas of spawning grounds in the middle and lower portions of the drainage are sti11 available to chinook salmon. Stream im­ provements by State and Federal fishery agencies have rehabilitated some areas and have brought others into production for the first time. Important spawning areas are listed and charted in this report according to their past use (before 1965) and present use (1966). Estimates of recent spawning populations in major tributaries and in segments of the main stem are also given.

  • Fishing Regulations JANUARY - DECEMBER 2004
    WEST VIRGINIA Fishing Regulations JANUARY - DECEMBER 2004 West Virginia Division of Natural Resources D I Investment in a Legacy --------------------------- S West Virginia’s anglers enjoy a rich sportfishing legacy and conservation ethic that is maintained T through their commitment to our state’s fishery resources. Recognizing this commitment, the R Division of Natural Resources endeavors to provide a variety of quality fishing opportunities to meet I increasing demands, while also conserving and protecting the state’s valuable aquatic resources. One way that DNR fulfills this part of its mission is through its fish hatchery programs. Many anglers are C aware of the successful trout stocking program and the seven coldwater hatcheries that support this T important fishery in West Virginia. The warmwater hatchery program, although a little less well known, is still very significant to West Virginia anglers. O West Virginia’s warmwater hatchery program has been instrumental in providing fishing opportunities F to anglers for more than 60 years. For most of that time, the Palestine State Fish Hatchery was the state’s primary facility dedicated to the production of warmwater fish. Millions of walleye, muskellunge, channel catfish, hybrid striped bass, saugeye, tiger musky, and largemouth F and smallmouth bass have been raised over the years at Palestine and stocked into streams, rivers, and lakes across the state. I A recent addition to the DNR’s warmwater hatchery program is the Apple Grove State Fish Hatchery in Mason County. Construction of the C hatchery was completed in 2003. It was a joint project of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the DNR as part of a mitigation agreement E for the modernization of the Robert C.

  • Fishing in the Seward Area
    Southcentral Region Department of Fish and Game Fishing in the Seward Area About Seward The Seward and North Gulf Coast area is located in the southeastern portion of Alaska’s Kenai Peninsula. Here you’ll find spectacular scenery and many opportunities to fish, camp, and view Alaska’s wildlife. Many Seward area recreation opportunities are easily reached from the Seward Highway, a National Scenic Byway extending 127 miles from Seward to Anchorage. Seward (pop. 2,000) may also be reached via railroad, air, or bus from Anchorage, or by the Alaska Marine ferry trans- portation system. Seward sits at the head of Resurrection Bay, surrounded by the U.S. Kenai Fjords National Park and the U.S. Chugach National Forest. Most anglers fish salt waters for silver (coho), king (chinook), and pink (humpy) salmon, as well as halibut, lingcod, and various species of rockfish. A At times the Division issues in-season regulatory changes, few red (sockeye) and chum (dog) salmon are also harvested. called Emergency Orders, primarily in response to under- or over- King and red salmon in Resurrection Bay are primarily hatch- abundance of fish.

This makes gear rigging easier and more comfortable, prevents new materials being contaminated with salt water before they are used, and avoids wasting time at sea which could better be used in fishing or carrying out other tasks on the boat.
