Idaho Fish Report

Good numbers of salmon are moving into and out of the estuary on each tide. Boat anglers have been doing well trolling anchovies and flashers from the mouth up to the harbor entrance. The tide is key to catching these fish as the estuary is small and the salmon will move back into the ocean when the tide is low. The wild Chinook bag limit is 1 adult per day and 5 for the period of Sept. 1 to Dec. 31. Anglers should always check for updated regulations prior to fishing.

Anglers are reminded that there is a bobber rule in effect from Sept. 1 – Nov. 3 from River Mile 2.2 to Nook Creek. Several anglers have been out fishing without bobbers and/or fishing licenses so always double check regulations and make sure to have your current fishing license and tag on you.

Anglers that see a game violation can report the violation to *OSP (*677) on a mobile device or call 1-800-452-7888. Anglers can also file complaints or potential violations concerning guides to the Oregon State Marine Board.
