Fall salmon season to kick off with mixed forecast
The popular Buoy 10 fishery
at the mouth of the Columbia
River opened Aug. 1, with a
mixed forecast for Chinook,
coho and steelhead returns.
The biggest change for the
2017 fall season are restrictions
on steelhead retention which
include area-specific, 1- to 2-
month steelhead retention clo-
sures and a one-steelhead bag
limit when retention is allowed.
Facing low expected returns
of upriver summer steelhead,
fishery managers adopted a
series of “rolling closures” that
progress upriver following the
steelhead return to reduce the
take of both hatchery and wild
fish.
All steelhead (hatchery and
wild) must be released as fol-
lows:
• Buoy 10 upstream to The
Dalles Dam during Aug. 1-31
• The Dalles Dam upstream
to John Day Dam during Sept.
1-30
• McNary Dam upstream to
Hwy. 395 during Oct. 1
through Nov. 30
Night angling is also prohib-
ited except for registered
anglers targeting Northern
pikeminnow.
A total of 614,000 Chinook
are expected to enter the
Columbia this fall, which is
slightly less than last year’s
Air quality ‘unhealthy’
as wildfire smoke lingers
Smoke from an early morn-
ing fire near Mt. Pisgah
pushed air quality monitors in
Eugene and Springfield to the
“Unhealthy”
levels.
Wi l d f i r e
smoke
is
more promi-
nent this time
of year, and
the high tem-
peratures
have elevat-
ed fire dan-
ger around
the state.
“Residents
who are sen-
sitive to pol-
lution form
smoke are advised to use cau-
tion when participating in out-
door activities,” said Jo
Niehaus, spokesperson for the
Lane Regional Air Protection
Agency.
“We are expecting more
smoke impacts this week as
winds shift. People may see
some improvement on Friday,
as onshore wind flows are pre-
dicted
to
increase,”
they contin-
ued.

The Buoy 10 fishery is the

The more competitive situa-
tions an athlete is faced with,
the better and more instinctive
their critical decision making
will be on the field or court
when it matters most.
Playing multiple sports in
high school is one way to
demonstrate athleticism and
build the experience necessary
to make good decisions under
pressure.
Athletes specializing too
early can limit the development

tourists and residents.
The big event is the Show
and Shine at Three Rivers,
from 10 a.m. to noon. All the
participating Broncos will be
of well-rounded experience in
addition to increasing the
potential of injuries caused by
overuse of certain muscles

Little League pitchers, (until
recent rule changes) were often
over-pitched. You see very few
little league pitchers throwing
at the Major League Baseball
level.
In addition, specializing in a
sport can lead to isolation from
other athletes as well as burn
out.
Playing other sports is like
cross training; it utilizes other
muscle movements to prevent
overuse injuries.
Encouraging your child to
play multiple sports improves
their athleticism while, at the
same time, improving the
chances of success for other
teams — especially in a small
school.
Oftentimes, high school ath-
letes may not even play their
high school position once they
reach college.
I was a quarterback and line-
backer in high school, yet
played safety in college, setting
a school record for intercep-
tions.
And though I played only
five baseball games in high
school, I was named MVP for
pitching my senior season at
Pacific University.
As the new school year
begins, try not to put all of an
athlete’s dreams into one bas-
ket.
When good athletes compete
in multiple sports it benefits
themselves, their school, and
their communities.
They will also add to their
athletic resume for the future.
