Emergency closure at wild coho fishery
Emergency closure: At 11:59 p.m. last night the wild coho fishery on the Coos River system was closed. We had a large number of coho caught on the bar and also in the river this past week, and we reached our 1,000 fish quota. The Coquille River has taken approximately 10 percent of the 1,500 fish quota and the coho are just starting to show up in better numbers in this fishery. You may still retain fin-clipped coho in both rivers.
