  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: The Umpqua River study : a joint report Author: Oregon. State Game Commission, Oregon. Fish Commission The species of anadromous fish entering the Umpqua River are: chinook salmon (spring, summer, and fall runs), silver salmon, steelhead trout (summer and winter runs), cutthroat trout, shad, striped bass and sturgeon. The winter steelhead, striped bass, and shad runs appear to be maintaining themselves. The runs of the other species appear to be in various stages of depletion. Major factors which have contributed to this depletion are: overfishing by the commercial fishery and more recently the sport fishery; and barriers such as log jams, "splash" damns, mill dam and hydroelectric developments. Other factors which may be of importance are: predation; unscreened gravity water diversions; water removal by pumping for irrigation, industrial, and municipal use; and fluctuations in water levels due to meterological conditions. The total run of spring chinook salmon into the Umpqua River in 1946 was estimated to be 4,400 fish of which approximately 935 were jacks. (fish under 20 inches). The fishing mortality of shad of commercial size, in the 1946 Umpqua River run, was estimated to be 50 percent. The total catch of the various species of salmon by the commercial and sport fisheries in 1946 were as follows: Under a proper management program, an average sustained yield of several times in the 1946 catches may be expected. During 1946, anglers spent at least $292,700 in this area while fishing for salmon and trout in the Umpqua River. The capital investment was estimated to be $2,402,500. The commercial fishery products of salmon steelhead, shad, striped bass, pilchards, and crabs taken from the Umpqua River in 1946 had a wholesale valur of $652,400. The capital investment was not determined. Title: The Umpqua River study : a joint report Author: Oregon. State Game Commission, Oregon.

"The construction of Illinois Falls fish ladder on the Illinois River in Oregon was completed in November 1961. The ladder was opened and operated during the winter of 1961-62. Final cleanup and rock removal was completed in the fall of 1962. The ladder was installed on a natural barrier where fish passage was delayed by low and moderately high river levels. The facility installed was a concrete vertical baffle-type fishway patterned after the Hells Gate fishway in use on the Fraser River in Canada. Since the ladder has been installed, salmon and steelhead have arrived at upper river areas much earlier than previously recorded. Concentrations of fish have not been observed below the falls."

Fintrol-5 was experimentally tested in six isolated gold dredge ponds in Sumpter Valley. The tests revealed all coarse fish in treated ponds were killed in a period varying between 7 hours and 144 hours; toxic water subbing from treated ponds would kill fish in downstream ponds if water table dillution was not too great; and, the period of toxicity varied from 2 days to 12 days in treated ponds, dependent upon rate of water exchange. One pond without water exchange was treated at a concentration of .075 ppb. All but 30 fish were killed. Title: Habitat Improvement Project, No. 26 Author: Oregon. State Game Commission.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Conditions in the Oregon commercial fishery based on the salmon, crab and shrimp industries from 1967 to 1980 Author: Lewis, Mary J Changes in the Oregon salmon, crab and shrimp fisheries were documented from 1967 to 1980. The related socio-economic conditions in fishing communities were described. Trends indicated that the overall importance of fisheries to port communities has declined and ports are not planning for an increase in the fishing industry. Chinook and coho salmon have accounted for a major part of the salmon fishery and both show downward trends. The shrimp fishery has replaced salmon in 1979 and 1980 as the most important commercial fishery, but shrimp fishing will probably not be permitted to increase until stocks can be more accurately determined. The crab fishery remained relatively stable and responded to a long term biological cycle of abundance of crabs Fishermen are attempting to increase their economic position by forming cooperatives and working within commodity commissions that promote seafoods.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Habitat Improvement Project, No. 25 Author: Oregon. State Game Commission. Fishery Division, Bisbee, Lawrence E. In earlier years, the lower Owyhee River provided excellent trout angling. In recent years, the fishery had declined to one maintained with the annual stocking of legal size hatchery trout on a put and take basis. Stream surveys completed in 1966 indicated the 16 1/2-mile section of the lower river lying between the Owyhee Reservoir dam and the old Owyhee diversion dam in Malheur County, Oregon, would lend itself to periodic rehabilitation and restocking annually with rainbow fingerling. Chemical treatment of this section of river was completed on March 18, 1967. A large population of bridgelip and coarsescale suckers, squawfish, chiselmouth, redside shiner, and carp were reduced. A kill estimated to be in excess of 63,000 fish resulted from the aerial application of 225 gallons of liquid pronox-fish by helicopter. Test fish confined in live boxes along with net sampling indicated an incomplete kill. Failure of the chemical to penetrate the deeper water and rapid detoxification were the primary causes for the incomplete kill. Detoxification at the old diversion dam was necessary to prevent destruction of warm-water game fish below. Rainbow fingerling totaling 97,642 were restocked in mid-April and 5,072 legal size rainbow were planted in late May 1967. Fingerling began entering the catch in August. Angler success was excellent.
