Additional Days For Chinook Fishing

Fishery managers in Washington and Oregon set additional Chinook salmon fishing days during their joint meeting Wednesday thanks to an upper Columbia summer Chinook run that is exceeding original forecasts.   Recreational fishing will be open from Thursday to July 15 for the retention of hatchery Chinook in the mainstem Columbia River from the Tongue Point-Rocky Point line upstream to the Highway 395 Bridge at Pasco, Wash.   The daily adult bag limit is two hatchery Chinook.  All other salmon and steelhead must be released.   All other permanent regulations, including bag limits for jack Chinook, apply.  Anglers are also reminded that thermal angling sanctuaries to protect wild steelhead take effect July 15.  All fishing is closed in these sanctuaries adjacent to, and within the lower reaches of Eagle Creek, Herman Creek, and the Deschutes River.
