Chinook Bag Limit Increased

Columbia River fishery managers have announced a change to the spring Chinook daily bag limit that will allow anglers to keep up to two adipose fin-clipped adult Chinook beginning Wednesday through June 15 from Tongue Point upstream to the Oregon/Washington border above John Day Dam.  The overall daily bag limit remains two steelhead or salmon…but both fish may now be Chinook.  The two adult Chinook limit will continue through the summer Chinook season beginning June 16, when anglers may also keep sockeye salmon as part of the adult bag limit.  The increased harvest opportunity is the result of a new run projection of 271,000 fish, up from the original estimate of 232,500.
