In the Coos Basin 1 addi-
tional hatchery steelhead may
be retained per day for a total
aggregate of 3 adult fish har-
vested daily.
Anglers have been catching
a few rockfish and surfperch
along the jetties and sub-
merged rock piles. Fishing for
rockfish in the bay has been
spotty. The marine fish daily
bag limit for bottom fish
(rockfish) is 7 fish and a sepa-
rate daily limit for lingcod (2).
The 7 fish marine bag limit
will remain in place, with
these adjustments for 2017:
Create a sub-bag limit of 6
black rockfish, remove the
sub-bag limit for canary rock-
fish, add China/quillback/cop-
per rockfishes to the sub-bag
limit with blue/Deacon rock-
fish and change the limit from
3 to 4.
Finally remove the 10-inch
minimum size for kelp green-
ling.
Retention of cabezon is not
allowed until July 1.
Recreational crabbing is
now open in all Oregon
waters. Crabbing was decent
over the weekend in Coos Bay.
Crabbing from a boat has
been better than crabbing from
the dock but dock crabbers are
picking up a few legal crabs.
Recreational harvest of bay
clams remains open along the
entire Oregon coast. Clamming
is excellent during low tides
near Charleston, off Cape
Arago Highway, and Clam
Island.
There are also good places
to dig clams even on positive
low tides in Coos Bay.
Recreational harvest of
razor clams and mussels is
closed from the entire Oregon
coast due to elevated levels of
domoic acid.
This includes all beaches
and all bays. Before any shell-
fish harvest trip, make sure to
check the Oregon Department
of Agriculture website for any
updates.

head in the North Fork
Coquille at LaVerne Park and
the South Fork Coquille rivers.
Anglers have had success
drifting eggs or corkies.
Recreational crabbing is
now open in all Oregon
waters.

lower Coquille River due to
the large amounts of freshwa-
ter coming downstream.

closed until May 22. Trout
fishing in Tenmile Lakes is

sites or fishing a jig under a

slowed down over the past few
weeks. Anglers are catching
bass near structure or on the
deep end of the weed lines
using jigs or rubber worms.
Fishing for yellow perch has
picked up in Tenmile Lakes.
Anglers have been catching a
few yellow perch measuring
14 to 15-inches long.
Worms fished near the lake
bottom work very well for
catching yellow perch. Anglers
should fish in water depths of
15 feet or deeper to consistent-
ly find the bigger yellow
perch.
UMPQUA RIVER, SOUTH:
Steelhead
The South Umpqua is open
to winter steelhead fishing,
upstream to Jackson Creek.
