Sturgeon Retention Closing In John Day Pool

Sturgeon retention will be closed in the John Day Pool, from John Day Dam upstream to McNary Dam, as of Thursday.  Fishery managers from Oregon and Washington made the decision because catches increased rapidly beginning late last week.  Due to the increased catch rate the 105 fish harvest guideline is projected to be met mid-week.  Therefore, the sturgeon retention will close tonight at 11:59 p.m.  Sturgeon retention currently remains open today and next Wednesday in the Bonneville Pool and Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays in The Dalles Pool until March 30.
