NEWPORT, Ore. – Extra days were added to the summer all-depth Pacific halibut fishery in the Columbia River and Central Coast subareas.
Unless noted below, the previously announced season dates remain unchanged.
Columbia River Subarea (Leadbetter Pt., WA to Cape Falcon, OR)
Added all depth days:
This subarea closes Sept. 30 or when quota is met. Daily bag limit is one Pacific halibut.
Central Oregon Coast Subarea (Cape Falcon to Humbug Mt.)
Anglers can continue fishing at all depths, seven days per week, when the summer all-depth season begins Aug. 1. The fishery remains open daily until Oct. 31 or when quota is met. Daily bag limit is two Pacific halibut.
Anglers are urged to follow the regulations and immediately tag landed halibut. Not immediately tagging landed fish is a common violation for halibut (and ocean salmon) anglers.
