Description

Abstract: The Statewide Trout Management Plan is part of the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife's (ODFW) planning program to provide a comprehensive, systematic, long-term approach to the management of Oregon's fish resources. The Plan contains specific goals, objectives, strategies, and guidelines for the statewide management of trout, which are based on state laws, as well as general goals and policies adopted by the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission, (hereafter referred to as the Commission). In turn, the Plan provides direction for basin, subbasin, and mini plans developed for individual rivers and water bodies. The relationship of the Statewide Trout Management Plan to other ODFW plans is further discussed in Appendix A. This Statewide Management Plan will direct future trout management and will be reviewed in 6 years. The plan contains brief descriptions of Oregon's trout waters, species, anglers, and economic consequences. The importance of habitat and the use of angling regulations are also discussed. The plan covers all species of native and introduced resident trout and Pacific salmon that are managed in the resident trout program (Atlantic salmon, kokanee, coho salmon, and Chinook salmon) and the anadromous form (searun) of cutthroat trout. Appendix B contains a complete list of fish treated as trout in the plan.
