This holiday weekend, you can take the opportunity to introduce a friend, child, co-worker or family member to fishing during Oregon’s free fishing days this Friday, November 27th, and Saturday, November 28th.
The Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife offers Oregon residents and visitors the opportunity to explore and experience fishing, crabbing, clamming without the need for a license or tags on specific pre-determined dates throughout the year.
Although no licenses or tags are required, all other fishing regulations apply including closures, bag limits and size restrictions. See the Oregon Sport Fishing Regulations to find out more and remember to check for any in season regulation changes at https://myodfw.com/recreation-report/fishing-report/
Also, the Oregon Department of Agriculture and the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife have announced the closure of the entire Oregon coast for razor clamming after recent razor clam samples indicate the marine biotoxin domoic acid has exceeded the closure limit, and recreational crabbing is closed in the ocean from Oct. 16th through Nov. 30th.
Enjoy the fun of fishing for free anywhere in the State of Oregon!
