This
Opens
Monday
!!!!
Ocean
coho
salmon
-
starts
on the
20th
of
June
this
year
on
the
central
and
south
coast
and
the
28th
on
the
North
coast.
With
a
huge
run
of
coho
salmon
expected,
so
big
that
3
or
more
fish
limits
are
very
possible
with
a
very
long
season.
Buoy
10
salmon
-
The
Columbia
river
is
forecast
to
have
over
2
million
fish
coming
back
this
year.
The
forecast
calls
for
huge
returns
of
hatchery
coho
salmon
in
09.
This
year
a
3
fish
coho
limit
is
in
effect
for
buoy
10
after
Sept
1st.
During
August
it
is
the
same
two
fish
only
one
of
which
can
be
a
chinook.
Sept
1
it
closes
for
chinook.
Buoy
10
is
the
name
for
the
fishery
that
takes
place
at
the
mouth
of
the
Columbia
River
in
Astoria.
This
fishery
happens
Aug
to
mid
Sept.
Coastal
Wild
Coho
seasons
-
Some
exiting
news
this
year.
The
numbers
of
wild
coho
expected
back
to
our
coastal
rivers
this
year
is
predicted
to
be
large
enough
that
ODFW
is
proposing
allowing
limited
harvest
of
wild
Coho
salmon
in
the
following
coastal
rivers
and
bays
-
Yaquina
river
and
bay,
Nehalem
river
and
Bay,
Tillamook
Bay
and
area
rivers.
Most
likely
will
be
a
5
fish
annual
take
similar
to
Siltcoos
lake.
This
is
only
a
proposal
at
this
point
it
still
requires
approval
of
the
FEDs
before
it
becomes
final.
Columbia
River
upriver
fall
chinook
salmon
-
As
of
now
it
looks
like
the
Longview
-
Kelso
hoglines
will
be
open
in
August
and
up
to
Sept
13
or
so
then
fishing
below
warrior
rock
will
close.
Upriver
of
Warrior
to
Bonneville
looks
as
though
it
will
stay
open
under
permanent
regs
until
the
end
of
the
year.
Most
likely
that
wont
happen
however,
I
am
sure
emergency
closures
will
happen
sometime
in
Sept
or
Oct.
It
will
be
the
same
old
deal
once
the
fishing
gets
good
and
we
are
actually
catching
fish
they
will
do
the
math
and
say
we
caught
to
many
and
close
it.
For
now
it
looks
like
a
full
season
with
a
big
run
of
fish
lets
hope
it
happens.

Tired
of
Gill
Nets?
you
need
to
JOIN
CCA.
The
Coastal
Conservation
Association
has
been
instrumental
in
the
success
of
100's
of
projects
on
the
Gulf
Coast
and
East
Coast
to
reduce
commercial
over
harvest,
ban
gill
nets
and
to
restore
sport
fisheries.
We
now
have
a
Pacific
Northwest
Chapter.
This
is
the
best
chance
as
sport
fisherman
in
this
region
to
speak
with
a
unified
voice
and
to
actually
be
recognized.
The
goal
is
to
reach
50,000
members
regionally
as
soon
as
we
can,
we
are
already
over
7000
members
strong
and
growing.

free

Crabbing
Report:
Still
slow
but
starting
to
improve
a
bit.
Lots
of
females
in
the
catch
and
sub
legal
males.
As
we
get
into
the
summer
months
the
percentage
of
males
and
legal
sized
males
will
get
better.
The
crab
will
still
be
soft
shelled,
not
having
much
meat
in
them
until
late
summer.
Not
worth
a
guided
crabbing
trip
till
late
Aug
but
certainly
a
good
family
activity
during
the
summer
months.
Each
bay
will
have
a
slightly
different
schedule
on
when
it
gets
good.
usually
the
ones
on
the
southern
end
of
the
state
get
better
first.
