You are right but kids still need to get a tag to fish for Steelhead. The Sandy is CLOSED to trout fishing until memorial day weekend. Here it is in the regulations

"Licenses, Tags and Permits:
1. Licenses, tags and permits can be obtained at license agents throughout the state of Oregon, via the Internet (Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife
online_license_sales/index.asp), or through the headquarters office in Salem by mail, fax, or in person.
2. State and federal laws require a Social Security Number to obtain most hunting and fishing licenses.
3. All persons 14 years or older must have in possession a valid Oregon angling license to angle for or take or assist another in angling
for or taking of any fish for personal use, except:
• During “Free Fishing Weekend” (June 12-13, 2010) when no license or tag is required;
• When taking smelt, crayfish, or bullfrogs;
• Oregon resident landowners and members of their immediate family may angle for fish on land they own and reside upon;
• When angling in the Pacific Ocean within 3 miles of shore between Cape Falcon, Oregon and Leadbetter Point, Washington
either a resident Washington license or an Oregon license is valid. Persons other than Washington residents must have a valid
Oregon license to land fish in Oregon which were caught in the ocean.

So in order for him to fish in the Sandy River when it is CLOSED to trout fishing he WILL need a tag!

You guys should work for ODFW, maybe go hate on some snaggers or something.

sooo no need for tags and where cani look at regulations the odwf web site is so cluttered

I commend you for wanting to learn the regulations, you can find an electronic version of the regulations here, http://www.dfw.state.or.us/fish/docs/2010_Oregon_Sport_Fishing_Regs.pdf

I've found that being searchable makes it all that much more valuable!

A jeuvinille combined angling tag for salmon, Steelhead, Sturgeon, and Pacific Halibut is only 8.50, just got mine.

Good lookin out moe. It seems that the blitzkrieg of regulations unearhted prior lacked that small piece of HELPFULL information. Its nice to see someone on the site who is out for the little guy. (thats all I've got to say about that) -TM

 

[bigdog]

sooo no need for tags and where can i look at regulations the odwf web site is so cluttered

As far as I could see that's all everyone in this thread was doing was looking out for (The little guy). He was even asking info on the regs, they were trying to make sure the younge guy understood that he does have to have his tags to fish the sandy, no one wants to see him get a fine for not having his tags.

wtf is your deal man?? we are just trying to help the kid not get in trouble.. we were helping him, not giving him a hard time.

i just didn't want to see him get stopped by a osp at a park that usually have one at it checking up on boats landing.. and if i recall he said he would look up the price of a tag..

if you can't see that we took the time and did the research to help him, i don't know what to say other then go make smart ass comments somewhere else to someone else..

Right on Moe. Good job of cutting to the chase. Thats what zarboth really needed to know.
Zarboth, with your love of fishing, I hope you have access to $8.50. Go get your tag, then you can stop worrying, wondering or whatever and just go get some feeesh! Good luck out there.

[bigsteel]

you couldnt pay me enough to work for odfw..............seriously when in doubt just shell out the few bucks and be safe

 

[bigdog]

Ok this is broke down so you don't have to go from page to page and get confused on what you are reading people. all the guy was asking for was info on rather he needed tags or not at this time he didn't ask how much. The regs were posted so the kid would see that he needed the tags because he was misunderstanding what he was told or what he thought he could do and no one wanted to see him get a big ticket. Now look carefully before any one decides to try to talk crap about what was posted for him. He was asking about the regs and was having a hard time looking it up on ODFW's site.

ok i dont have tags but you dont need tags for crappie well im fishing for crappie i acedintally catch a trout i just throw it back without getting in torubole right?

thank you im really exited but all i have is trout rods ): do you think i could get stel head with that are there any other fish there like crappie or trout?

im not evan at the age where i need a juvenill licence when im 14 i need that so one year away

thanks say i caught but i dident keep would i need tags for that?

i just looked at the regulations which u should too zarboth

looks like if your 13 and younger you can fish for free in this state but i think u may still have to sign up or something, may want to look into it

If u accidentally catch a trout id keep it and eat it, depenping where u are

sooo no need for tags and where cani look at regulations the odwf web site is so cluttered

This is where he asked about the price and then he got a answer.

ok egg has some proof i guess i can look up prices for tags ):

the tag is cheap ($10 or $12)... and should last you throughout the year
if you fish on the Washington side you need an endorsement for the Columbia and ALL of its tributaries (8.95 for non residents I think)

good luck out there man, let us know if you catch anything.

Not trying to be a jerk here but everyone seems to think that other were being jerks for posting the regs for him but that's what he asked for and judging by what he was saying it looks to me like everyone just saved the guy from getting a big ticket out there.


Zarboth I hope you got out and had a good time out there and got in to some fish man. The first time you hook in to a steelie or a salmon you will be addicted for life man.

who is encouraging him to break the law?

 

[beaverfan]

Troutmasta said he can get his tag if he wants but if he doesn't he can still find a spot to fish there.

 

[bigsteel]

oh,,,,i hope the kid dont get stopped

 

[bigdog]

Yeah no kidding I know how I would feel if my kid came home with a ticket for not having tags while out fishing and did it because some one wanted to tell them to go fish anyways.

So Zarboth how did it go out there for you bud?
