Recreational smelt and sturgeon fishing
to close on Tuesdays
Action: Closes Columbia River sturgeon and smelt recreational fisheries on Tuesdays from the Hayden Island west powerlines upstream to Bonneville Dam. This action effectively closes this area to recreational fishing of all species.
Effective dates: Begins the week of March 24 and runs through April 30, 2008.
Species affected: Sturgeon and smelt.
Location and time: The area from the Hayden Island west powerlines upstream to Bonneville Dam will be closed to all recreational fishing on Tuesdays (from one hour after official sunset on Mondays through one hour before official sunrise on Wednesdays).
Reason for action: Washington and Oregon have adopted these regulations in an effort to minimize commercial/recreational interactions due to the reduced fishing area and limited boat ramp access.
