The Four Columbia River treaty fishing tribes made the following fishery change:
In a continued effort to balance the limited number of available chinook under the allowed harvest rate with the need to provide additional fishing opportunities, the tribes have modified the current the Zone 6 Platform and Hook and line fishery schedule by adding fishing time. An additional day will be added to the two remaining fishery openings of the spring season fisher. The new openings are:
- 6AM Wednesday June 5 to 6PM Saturday June 8
- Wednesday June 12 through 6:00 PM Saturday June 15.
The fishery will remain open for subsistence use only. For fishers using hook and line gear, only two poles per person are allowed. Other platform gears are allowed under standard gear regulations. Contact your tribe’s fish and wildlife department for details on gear rules.
Summer management period fisheries will be announced later.
