"A study of smallmouth bass in the Umpqua River System was initiated in 1987 and continued in 1988. Results of that work were reported in a progress report. The study was continued in 1990 after a one-year lapse. This report summarizes results of the work conducted in 1990. Objectives of...
Draft report. "An important recreational fishery has developed in the last five years in Yaquina Bay, targeting primarily on fish returning to a private hatchery facility. We have no specific creel information from this fishery and this census begins to fill that gap." (from the Introduction)
This is an exhibit prepared by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife for the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission. Washington State had delayed the opening of their 1989-90 commercial crab fishery, and this delay disrupted fisheries in other states up and down the West Coast. The main focus of...
This report further updates the status of crabbing in Oregon using helicopters in 1977. It summarizes the legal issues around helicopter crabbing and their resolution. The report mentions what may have been the fatal flaw in this method of crabbing. "In pulling a crab pot, the buoy line reportedly snapped,...
In 1976, a Coos Bay company began using helicopters instead of boats to pull and replace crab pots. This report, an exhibit by ODFW to the Oregon Fish and Game Commission, explores the legal and regulatory implications of helicopter crabbing in Oregon.
In March, 1990, about 24 crabbers, seafood processors and seafood vendors met in Newport for a workshop and a chance to give input to ODFW. One issue addressed was setting the start date for the commercial crab season to minimize the incidence of soft crabs that are not filled out...
The Port of Coos Bay is considering expanding their marina facilities in Charleston. Several sites are being considered; one to the north of the present boat basin and one to the south (Figure 1). The southern proposal is for an area that historically has supported an important recreational clam fishery....
In the mid-1970s, it became clear to fisheries managers that there was too much pressure on some recreational bay clam fisheries, and the sizes of clams taken was becoming too small, endangering future production. This document is a draft of a report on the problem submitted to the Oregon Fish...
In the mid-1970s, ODFW faced a problem with Oregon's recreational bay clam fisheries. The size of littleneck clams and cockles taken in some bays was dramatically decreasing. This document is a report submitted by ODFW to the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission. It recommends a reduction in overall take by...
This workshop was intended to "open lines of communication" between crab fishers, seafood processors and dealers, and State fisheries management personnel. "About 35 people attended. We talked about industry goals and objectives, management tools, industry views/ideas and specific concerns." (from the Introduction) Topics included maximizing yield, access, profits, biological productivity,...
Should commercial crabbing be banned in Oregon bays in order to eliminate potential conflict with recreational bay crabbers? In answering this question, this report summarizes the state of the bay crab fishery in the mid-1980s and examines esthetic and economic aspects of the issue. Includes statistics. This is a staff...
"Oregon's oyster industry is almost as old as the state. In the early 1860's, schooner loads of native oysters were taken from Yaquina Bay and transported to markets in San Francisco. Over the years, the industry and the resource have changed drastically. This report briefly reviews the status of Oregon's...
Razor clams from Clatsop Beach (Tillamook Head to Columbia River) were sampled regularly from March through September and periodically the rest of the year. Sport and commercial diggers were interviewed to obtain data on number, age composition of clams dug and harvest area. Data from other beaches south of Tillamook...

Razor clams from Clatsop Beach (Tillamook Head to Columbia River) were sampled regularly from March through September and periodically the rest of the year. Sport and commercial diggers were interviewed to obtain catch locations, number and age composition of clams dug. Random
age-length samples and wastage samples were collected. Data...

The following bibliography was first prepared in April 1974 for use as a working bibliography on the State/Federal Dungeness Crab Management Program. The present collection combines the articles appearing in the 1974 report with those that have appeared through June 1976.
An earlier bibliography on the Dungeness crab (Butler, 1967)...
"Oregon's estuaries are focal points in an important recreational and commercial fishery for Dungeness crab. This report describes crabbing in Oregon's estuaries and includes brief notes on crab biology, catch statistics, major fishing areas, fishing regulations, problems, and proposed solutions." (Introduction) 13 pp. Internal discussion paper.
To bring together in systematic and usable form the bulk of the information dealing with Douglas fir logging costs thus far acquired, so as to make it accessible, is the object of this publication.
In the measurement of fire weather and forest inflammability,
now practiced regularly at more than 90 forest stations in northern
Idaho and western Montana, it is necessary to use many methods
that are peculiar to this work. Some of these methods are familiar
to meteorologists, but few foresters have had...
This publication furnishes information that should be useful to 4-H Club leaders and members and other young people. It is intended to supplement subjectmatter material published by the various States and other agencies. The text emphasizes getting acquainted with forest trees and forest stands and learning their different values to...
This publication is written for the purpose of supplying answers to the usual questions asked forest officers by tourists and others interested in the work of the Forest Service in California.
Forestry in the United States is no longer merely a theory or a subject for discussion; it has gotten down to concrete things in the woods. Nor is the growing of timber confined to public lands; it is gradually making headway on land in private ownership. It is becoming an...
