MARK BRENNAN/SIUSLAW NEWS
Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife is conducting a Ocean Recreational Boat Survey at
the Port of Siuslaw and other Oregon coast waterways to determine fishing seasons.
SURVEY from page 1A
by anglers and other informa-
tion, such as lengths, weights,
recovery of tags and numbers
of released fish, that are need-
ed for management of the
ocean recreational fisheries.”
The information gathered
at the port will be included
in statewide totals to help in
determining the number of
recreational anglers that are
fishing in this area, and the
approximate number of fish
that are being caught.
“The basics of what we do
are to count the boats out,
get a sample of the returning
trips to get an average of the
number of anglers and fish
per boat and then apply those
averages to the boats that
went out,” Schindler said.
The reports created with
ORBS data will guide the
ODFW in determining the
length of the season for a par-
ticular fish.
Calculations and educat-
ed estimates gathered from
Florence will be added to data
from other coastal recreation-
al fishing areas, including
major ports at the Columbia
River, Tillamook Bay, Pacif-
ic City, Depoe Bay, Newport,
Winchester Bay, Charleston
and Brookings. Smaller ports,
where testing is not done as
often, include Bandon, Gold
Beach and the Port of Siuslaw.
The ORBS totals will be
used to determine critical
catch numbers for the re-
mainder of this season; more
simply, the data will be used
to decide how many more fish
can be caught and of what
type they will be.
The use of onsite, manu-
al counting of anglers and
catches, is becoming less
common as ODFW has start-
ed using mounted video cam-
eras at other ports. The use
of video cameras in Newport
and Astoria, which are much
busier than Florence, has pro-
duced accurate results and
may take the place of human
data gathering at some point
in the future.

estimation, we use a trail-
er plus moorage slip count,”
Schindler said. “This method
scales the ocean effort based
on the proportion of trips
returning to the basin that
went to the ocean versus just
the estuary,” Schindler said.
“At the five most significant
ports with recognized good
non-salmon fishing activi-
ty, ORBS begins sampling in
early March and continues
through October. The re-
maining sampled ports typ-
ically have start up dates for
sampling in the first week of
May or the third week of June,
with an end to sampling in
late September.”
Schindler added that while
the primary purpose of ORBS
is data collection, employees
of the ODFW have a respon-
sibility to identify and cite in-
dividuals that are in violation
of ODFW regulations.
“Our crew is not out there
for enforcement related activ-
ities, and do not go looking
for violations … however, if
they encounter a violation,
they are required to address
the violation,” he said. “That
often entails recording infor-
mation from the individual’s
license and tag and passing
the information on to the
Game Enforcement Division
of Oregon State Police for fur-
ther action.”
