For the first time in 62 years, chinook and coho salmon are able to freely migrate into North Creek, a tributary of Drift Creek, due to the efforts of multiple agencies, organizations and a group of concerned anglers who wrote a letter to the U.S. Forest Service.
Anglers must release copper, quillback and China rockfish when fishing from a boat, beginning today as the harvest guideline for these species has been met.
No fishing licenses or tags (including a Combined Angling Tag or Columbia River Basin Endorsement) are required to fish, crab or clam anywhere in Oregon for both residents and non-residents Saturday and Sunday.
For Oregon consumers looking to hunt and/or fish this season, be careful when purchasing licenses as Better Business Bureau Northwest and Pacific has learned of an ongoing online scam publishing phony licenses.
The Rainbow Trout were flying from the pump Friday at Regatta Park's dock on Devils Lake as 2300 fish were pumped from a truck into a netted-off area for kids to use in a free fishing event 9 a.m. - 2 p.m. Saturday.
