How many times have you heard
yourself or someone with you grunt, “ I
wish I had a nickel for every squawfish
I’ve caught ” ? 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 "
