Boneville Dam
People have told me that its illegal to angle sturgeon by boneville dam till August 1st. Who can verify this? Thanks for your help.
alex, its a good idea in general to check regs yourself, ( on odf website or law pamplet) I could tell you "oh yeah heck, killed em there yesterday!" but am I or anyone else really concerned with you getting a ticket? the first skill a fisherman needs to learn is how to find the laws..... then focus on finding the fish. Good fishin-
"he who dies with the most toys..... still dies"
It is illlllegal to sturgon fish below the dam, guys are getting tickets now for that.
It closed on June 6th cause people caught there quota.Originally Posted by SINKER STEVE

It doesn't say anything about august 1st. I was at boneville dam 2 weeks ago, caught a sturgeon and was told to release it because its illegal to catch them now.
Well Its not in the FIshing Regulations, If you go to the fishing section of ODFW look around and you will see that the bonneville pool is closed for sturgeon cause the years quota was caught.
It may open again in october
No, It wont. Retention is closed for the rest of the year, Catch n release Only now.
like every year before it opens again in October exception was last year when the opened it in august you just need to go to odfw and look and see, updates are not often but like salmon they may open it or close it anytime they want, i might be easier to call odfw and check with them btw i believe sturgeon is still open but thats from beacon rock which is a few miles from bonneville to the ocean
