Temperatures have gone down, and by Wednesday, the Jefferson will have enough water flowing through it to meet the criteria set by the management to open the river.

After hearing a passionate speech from the island’s councilor, Northumberland County Council voted against plans to ban fishing on Holy Island.
This year, the Department of Food, Environment, and Rural Affairs (Defra) announced a consultation on creating a highly protected marine area (HPMA) around the island. This would stop fishing at Lindisfarne, which has been done for thousands of years.
At the county council meeting on Wednesday, Coun Colin Hardy, who represents Norham and Islandshires, asked his fellow councilors to vote as strongly as possible against the plans.

Well, that went by fast!
The summer went by quickly, and now we’re home from the west coast.
And it was another great summer.
When we first got to the island in July, there seemed to be a lot of cohos and the halibut fishing was great. We mostly fished near shore for Chinook and Coho, but we went out to sea to catch halibut.
As July went on, the fishing for Chinook got better and the coho seemed to leave. The fishing for halibut stayed great all month.

In 2020 and 2021, the amount of illegal fishing in rockfish conservation areas near Galiano Island, British Columbia, went up by a lot.
Since the COVID-19 pandemic started in early 2020, illegal fishing has been a big problem on Galiano Island in southwestern British Columbia. In the last two years, the number of suspected poaching incidents in three marine reserves near the island that are meant to protect rockfish has gone up by a lot.
Natalie Ban is a professor of environmental studies at the University of Victoria in British Columbia and the lead author of a recent study. She says, “It’s really quite disappointing.” “Things were getting better… Then the pandemic happens, and things seem to have fallen apart on the compliance front.”

The Offshore Wind Research and Monitoring Initiative (RMI) made this second round of projects possible. They will look at how offshore wind farms might affect the recreational fishing industry, use acoustic telemetry to track the movements of fish, use passive acoustic technologies to track the movements of whales, and look at offshore wind infrastructure as a possible platform for long-term environmental and ecological monitoring.

California Assembly Bill 2109 Signed Into Law, Providing New Protections For White Sharks
Sep 22, 2022

On Monday, September 19, Governor Gavin Newsom signed Assembly Bill 2109 into law. This gives white sharks in the waters of California new protections. White sharks, which are also called “great white sharks,” are already protected because they are top-level predators and an important part of the ocean ecosystem. People and scientists are very interested in them.
The bill, which was backed by Assemblymember Steve Bennett, was passed by the California legislature with the support of an overwhelming majority. The new rules are meant to stop people from doing things that could lead to more interactions between white sharks and people.
They also give law enforcement more tools to protect white sharks from people who try to catch or lure them on purpose. By putting limits on when and where chum and shark bait can be used, the new law also helps keep people from coming into contact with white sharks that fishermen have caught by accident. This is done without stopping other legal fishing activities.
Nebraska man threatened to kill federal officer after being cited for a fishing violation

LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) – After threatening to kill a federal officer over a fishing ticket, a Blair man will spend almost ten years in prison.
Cody Cape, who is 24 years old, was given a 117-month prison sentence on Thursday for threatening to kill a federal law enforcement officer and carrying a gun during a violent crime.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office says that a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service officer gave Cape a ticket for illegal fishing in October 2020.
The officer was looking into whether Cape and one of his friends had killed a wild animal.
A friend of Cape’s picked him up two months later and told him to drive to the officer’s home in Blair.
Crooked River, Ochoco Creek closed to fishing starting Sept. 24 due to low water flows

PRINEVILLE, Ore.— Because of the ongoing drought and low water levels, the ODFW will stop fishing in the Crooked River and Ochoco Creek on Saturday, September 24, and at least through October 31.
Central Oregon has been in a drought for many years, and now the streamflows and reservoirs in this area are at all-time lows. During the summer, water is let out of the Prineville Reservoir and the Ochoco Reservoir into the Crooked River and the Ochoco Creek so that farmers can water their crops. These releases also help keep enough water moving for gamefish that live in the area, like redband trout and mountain whitefish.
This year, the season for watering crops will end a few weeks earlier than usual. Because of this, the reservoirs will only let out a small amount of water over the next month or more. This means that resident gamefish species will have a lot less space to live. Fish will gather in the pools that are still there, making them more vulnerable to predators and making it harder for them to get food.
