If you fish the upper Columbia River to any extent, well, your wish could come true-at least for this summer. The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, with funding from Bonneville Power Administration, is offering anglers not five cents, but $1 for each squawfish they catch and turn in from the John Day Reservoir-that stretch of the Columbia between the John Day and McNary dams. The “ cash for trash” -fish incentive is aimed at increasing salmon and steelhead smolt survival on the mainstrem Columbia by reducing the young fish’s number one predator. The department estimates that something near 200,000 northern squawfish inhabit the area and account for roughly 80 percent of smolt predation there. By reducing populations of larger squawfish by only 10 to 20 percent, officials claim, smolt predation losses could be cut by as much as 50 percent-the equivalent of about one million young salmon and steelhead. To participate in the program, which started May 24 and runs through September 3, anglers must first check in at one of four registration sites rom 6 to 10 a.m. Thursday through Sunday, and check out by 3 p.m. on any of those days. A voucher for $1 along with a brief questionnaire will be issued for each squawfish 11 inches or longer. Registration sites are located at Port of Arlington; Umatilla Marina in Umatilla; LePage Park on the John Day River (exit 114); and at Plymouth on the Washington shore near McNary Dam. According to Ron Boyce, ODFW Fish Division Staff Specialist, the reward program is still in the experimental stages and will be under careful scrutiny by the department for the remainder of the test period to deter mine its effectiveness. “ After this year, we’ll have an idea on several things," Boyce said. “ One, how well those three fisheries we are testing out there work, and secondly, what kind of participation we will get for certain level of monetary reward. We’ll start at $1 and, if necessary, we can increase it to get the level of participation that is required to remove a set number o ffish .” Boyce said that in addition to removing a percentage of the predators, participating anglers will contribute to smolt survival by providing the department with valuable information on how squawfish are best controll ed with hook and line. "You also have the learning element,” he said. “ They (anglers) will be able to teach us better ways to catch squawfish with different techni ques that they might develop.” While the project is ultimately funded by rate payers of BP A, the possibility of selling the squawfish carcasses to byproducts processors is being explored to help recover costs. This angling writer also sees the program as an excellent means of in troducing youngsters to the thrill of fishing. Young anglers are rarely con cerned with the type or quality of the fish they catch, as long as there are lots of them. And if you've run out of chores for the kids to earn a little extra scratch, a family trip to the Columbia could accomplish several ends- -including a valuable hands-on lesson in fishery conservation. And who knows? Reward or no, adults might find the experience a kick in the britches as well. “ If anything, it will be nice to develop an alternative sport fishery,” says Tony Nigro. program leader for ODFW. “ You know, if people en joy catching them, then you’re satisfying a recreational need. And a lot of the feedback that I’ve gotten from anglers is that they already catch 10 or 20 squawfish incidentally when they fish for walleye, so now they’ll just keep them and it will pay for gas " Squawfish Bounty Will Aid Salmon and Steelhead Survival V W W W W M K ” W O R K SH O P ** V ISE • Made in U S A • Positive locking base • Slip handle lock mil Jaw Width 6" Jaw Opening Pipe Capacity 1/8" to 2-IW N r JM 4S «Iff S a l t W«N I t l I J N S a fi RIM IUL Price Heppner Auto P arts« 676-9123 148 E.
