Fisheries Off West Coast States and in the Western Pacific; West Coast Salmon Fisheries; Inseason Action #5 - Adjustments of the Recreational Fishery from Cape Alava, Washington, to Cape Falcon, OR

NMFS announces two regulatory modifications in the recreational fishery from Cape Alava, WA, to Cape Falcon, OR. Effective Friday, July 29, 2005, the La Push, Westport, and Columbia River Subarea's will be open seven days per week, with a modified daily bag limit as follows: "All salmon, two fish per day, and all retained coho must have a healed adipose fin clip." All other restrictions remain in effect as announced for 2005 Ocean Salmon Fisheries. This action was necessary to conform to the 2005 management goals, and the intended effect is to allow the fishery to operate within the seasons and quotas specified in the 2005 annual management measures.
