Columbia River and tributary fishery report for Oct. 12-18

The latest Columbia River and southwest Washington tributary fishery report for Oct. 12–18 summarizes angler effort and catch rates based on interviews at selected fishing access sites under a randomized schedule. The data is explicitly not comprehensive of all angler effort at each location. For the period, 97 salmon boats and three Washington bank rods were counted. As with other installment reports, the figures are meant to provide a snapshot of activity and results during the week rather than a complete census of the fishery across the region.
