SNAKE ZONE: Regulation Changes

Snake River

• Opens for spring chinook Saturday, May 4. The fishery will remain open until a notice of closure is announced.
• Open to sport fishing seven days a week from Dug Bar Boat Ramp to the deadline below Hells Canyon Dam.
• The daily bag limit is four adipose fin-clipped spring chinook salmon (adult and jacks) per day, no more than one can be an adult salmon more than 24-inches long. Anglers must stop fishing for salmon for the day when they have kept four jack salmon (equal to or less than 24-inches long) or one adult salmon, whichever comes first.

The 2013 Oregon Sport Fishing Regulations (pdf) provide requirements for all zones. However, additional regulations may be adopted in this rule division from time to time and to the extent of any inconsistency, they supersede the 2013 Oregon Sport Fishing Regulations.
