2022 Fall Coastal Salmon Fishing
Some restrictions/closures for wild
Chinook but more wild coho re-
tention seasons expected
Anglers fishing for salmon in
some coastal rivers this fall will face clo-
sures or reduced bag limits for wild fall
Chinook, but more opportunity for wild
coho.
ODFW has adopted regulations
for wild fall Chinook seasons based on the
sliding scale in the 2014 Coastal Multi-
species Conservation and Management
Plan (CMP) and the Rogue Fall Chinook
Salmon Plan Conservation Plan, two plans
developed through rigorous public process-
es to sustain coastal salmon populations.
Poor returns in 2021 and low forecasts for
2022 trigger conservation concerns in both
plans, resulting in reduced or closed reten-
tion for wild fall Chinook in several basins.
For more information about the
plans and wild fall Chinook returns and
forecasts in each basin, please see the June
7 webinar and presentation (PDF) at https://
myodfw.com/articles/fall-coastal-salmon-
management .
In contrast to wild Chinook,
which have a different life cycle than coho,
the outlook for wild coho for the Oregon
coast is similar to last year’s strong return.
In 2021 there were wild coho retention sea-
sons in four coastal rivers for the first time
in five years. ODFW anticipates nine ba-
sins will have wild coho retention this year
(Alsea, Beaver Creek, Coos, Nehalem,
Nestucca, Siletz, Tillamook, Umpqua, Ya-
quina).
Fall coho regulations will be set
later in the summer after consideration by
NOAA Fisheries since Oregon Coast Natu-
ral coho remain listed as Threatened under
the federal Endangered Species Act.
Below is a summary of 2022
regulations for wild fall Chinook. Go to
the Recreation Report for your angling
zone and click Regulation Updates tab to
