jack regulations?

[here2fish]

How small does a nook have to be in order to be classified a jack? What are the regs on the Sandy for them?

Under 24" = Chinook Jack - You are allowed 5 per day if I am not mistaken.

On the bonneville dam website, it says Chinook jacks are less than 22" and coho jacks are less than 18"

Under 24" = Chinook Jack - You are allowed 5 per day if I am not mistaken.

And from what I've been told they must be clipped

I just read this and they do not need to be clipped per OFDW...

•· Open for jack chinook salmon (Clipped or Not) from June 16 onward. Jacks are defined as chinook salmon less than 24” long.

It also says...
Open for adult chinook salmon (Clipped or Not) from June 22-July 5.

Does that mean Natives are fair game??

But this is for the Columbia River. Need to check the manual to be 100%. Peace

That website is not up to date - Here is the most recent release from ODFW directly ---

ODFW - News Release - Commission approves coastal coho, fall chinook seasons

This is copied direct from the site -
