State changes barbed-hook rules on Columbia
Oregon Department of Fish and
Wildlife adopted temporary rules al-
lowing anglers to use barbed hooks
when fishing for salmon, steelhead
and trout in the Columbia River be-
ginning June 1.
The agency chose to remain concur-
rent with Washington state’s fishing
regulations since the river is jointly
managed.
The temporary rule will remain in
effect until further notice or until it
expires in late November.
For it to become permanent, the
Fish and Wildlife Commission must
approve a rule change, which com-
missioners are expected to consider
at a future meeting.
Anglers have been required to use
barbless hooks in the Columbia since
2013. In March, the Washington Fish
and Wildlife Commission adopted a
recommendation to make the use of
barbless hooks voluntary, and it went
into effect June 1.
Rules requiring the use of sin-
gle-point barbless hooks when fish-
ing for sturgeon in the Columbia Riv-
er remain in effect for anglers in both
states.
