Description

The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) in consultation with the Pacific Fishery Management Council (PFMC), the State of Washington, the State of Oregon, and advisory body members met Wednesday and have taken the following in-season management actions related to the commercial troll salmon season from the US/Canada Border to Cape Falcon, Oregon:   ACTIONS TAKEN:  Effective May 28 at 12:01 a.m., modify the landing and possession limit in the subarea between Leadbetter Point and Cape Falcon to 100 Chinook per vessel per landing week (Thursday through Wednesday).   RATIONALE:  There are sufficient Chinook remaining in the Columbia River subarea guideline to increase weekly landing and possession limits in this subarea to bring it into alignment with coastwide and other subarea limits North of Cape Falcon for the current and future weeks. The coastwide and Westport area limits have been reduced from 200 Chinook to 100 to maintain season length into June while keeping trip limits at economically viable levels.  Fishery participants are reminded that vessels landing salmon into Oregon from any season North of Cape Falcon are required to notify ODFW at least one hour prior to landing by either calling 541-857-2546 or sending notification via email to [email protected].  Notification shall include vessel name and number, number of salmon by species, port of landing, location of delivery, and estimated time of delivery.  Additional regulations that apply to vessels fishing out of Oregon, North of Cape Falcon that apply to the 2026 seasons include:  • Within 24 hours of any closure of the fishery vessels must land and deliver their salmon.  • Vessels landing in Oregon are limited to only fishing between Leadbetter Pt., WA and Cape Falcon, OR.  • Vessels landing into Oregon must possess a valid commercial license and a valid troll salmon permit.  • Vessels landing into Oregon are limited to locations on the Oregon side of the Columbia River upstream as far as Tongue Pt., the beaches at Gearhart/Seaside and Cannon Beach, or into Garibaldi.  Visit https://www.dfw.state.or.us/MRP/salmon/ for more information on Oregon's ocean salmon seasons and fisheries.
