Free fishing and camping offered at state parks
Fishing is free throughout
the state this weekend and
many state parks are offering
free camping, parking or spe-
cial events.
Neither residents nor vis-
itors need licenses or tags
June 2 and 3 for fishing,
crabbing or clamming in the
state, including on the Co-
lumbia River. While no li-
censes are required, all other
fishing regulations apply, in-
cluding closures, bag limits
and size restrictions.
“Free fishing weekends
are a great opportunity for
friends and families to get out
and enjoy a day or two of fish-
ing,” said Mike Gauvin, rec-
reational fisheries manager
for the Oregon Department
of Fish and Wildlife. “Trout,
warm-water fish, ocean fish-
ing, crabbing and clamming
are just some of the great op-
portunities available.”
Volunteer angler education
instructors will loan fishing
gear and give tips on how
to catch and clean fish from
9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday at
Coffenbury Lake in Fort Ste-
vens State Park.
There will be a kids’ fish-
ing derby with prizes and
a biggest-fish competition,
fly-casting demonstrations
by the Rainland Flycasters
and a barbecue lunch.
There are similar events
statewide, with the closest
being at Gnat Creek Fish
Hatchery in Clatskanie, at
Henry Hagg Lake in Gaston,
Nedona Pond in Rockaway
and Trask River Hatchery in
Tillamook.
ODFW offers eight free fish-
ing days a year; others will be
Sept. 1-2 and Nov. 23-24.
Oregon State Parks also are
free to visit June 2 and 3, with
day-use parking fees waived
both days and free camping
on Saturday (an $8 reserva-
tion is required to guarantee
a camping spot).

“State Parks Day is our
way of thanking Oregonians
for their commitment to our
state parks,” said Lisa Sump-
tion, Oregon Parks and Rec-
reation Department director.
“We invite people to discover
a new park or revisit an old
favorite.”
It may be difficult getting a

camp sites were available.
