So... based on the fact sheet, this is still just a recommendation and no final decision has been released. Correct?

The Fact Sheets by the staff are issued by first. These contain a staff recommendation. The Action Notice as above has the decision by the DFW managers and are the official rule-decision.

No, above in post 299 is the final action.

Adopted..... extension is a go. Well my skeptical self got whizzed on and I am happy about that!

 

[rworegon]

My skeptical self still marvels that the fact sheet said said that exactly 1,500 was the number above Bonneville and 5,166 below.

1,500 just seems like a nice round number….and I don’t trust a nice neat number like 1,500 as being accurate in the context of the fact sheet.

With spring chinook salmon run up 30% at Bonneville Dam, more fishing days added on lower Columbia River

Oregon and Washington biologists authorized 23 more fishing days for spring chinook on the lower Columbia River, beginning Thursday.

They could have said 1,511... Wouldn't make it any more or less fake. They work off creel/hours/effort. Hard to get an exact number. Sounds like up river fishing was pretty hot... I was sure there would be allocation left. I was wrong.

I love to actually see the calculation if even just for the sake of transparency.

Fish on!

Upon further review, you are correct. I’ll fish along an island in a gorge

Super disappointed, but I saw the same thing.

Yeah, maybe its time to reevaluate the split between upper and lower rivers. There may be way more people fishing above than thought. I know once upon a time there were 100's of boats in a few miles of McNary every season, every day, on both sides of the river. Since I do think they try to make opportunity, maybe shift a few more percentages up stream. At least then they could do something like the Snake (Tue/Thur openings).

Hell maybe not open on weekends above Bonneville to slow the consumption of impacts.

Cause just like down river, were on the bench during the peak.

I don't want to screw anyone. I just wanna fish

If they shift allocation more will just go above the walls.

Here's an interesting spin....I chatted with OSP today, and was informed the current action notice does NOT include jacks! It lists adult salmonids, but leaves jack rules under permanent rules, which allow jack retention as of 5/16. The gentleman fishing next to me had retained two jacks, but was gone when the officer arrived. To have retention allowed for adults but not jacks is unheard of. I wonder if it was an oversight to not specifically list them...

 

[Big Game Fishing]

They killed the fishery from B10 to Tongue Point too.

Not sure why?

Woulda been nice to anchor in 12 feet of water and deploy rods for both sturgeon and salmon along the sands....

It’s listed in the WA update.

5 seconds of my life I can never get back.

That's pretty clear. I hope that particular officer looks a little deeper...
