Fisheries managers from Oregon and Washington will reopen the Columbia River to recreational sturgeon and coho fishing.  In a joint state hearing of the fish and wildlife departments from both states, fisheries managers decided to open the river for two additional days of recreational sturgeon fishing –Saturday and this coming Thursday – from the Wauna power lines at River Mile 40 upstream to the fishing deadlines at Bonneville Dam, including the Cowlitz River.  The states also decided to reopen the mainstem Columbia to retention of coho salmon beginning today and continuing through October 31, from the Tongue Point/Rocky Point line upstream to The Dalles Dam.  Only hatchery coho may be retained downstream of the Hood River Bridge.  All steelhead and all salmon except coho must be released.
