This report provides rockfish landings (weight in metric tons) based upon species composition samples taken from commercial trawl landings in Oregon. Rockfish (Family Scorpaenidae) are an important segment of Oregon trawl landings. For over 30 years, the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW), Marine Finfish Program, previously known as...
Fish passing Winchester Dam view-window counting station on the North Umpqua River were enumerated. Figure 1 is a map of the Umpqua basin and denotes the counting station. The counts for summer steelhead, fall chinook, and sea-run cutthroat increased while those for winter steelhead, spring chinook, and coho decreased. By...
