| Notes | Before World War II, relatively few natural resource management reports from Oregon state agencies were published. This report covers current (circa 1936) management issues, fur-bearing animals, predators, waterfowl, upland game birds, fisheries and conservation. Fisheries data includes salmon pack statistics, 1880-1931, as well as statistics (various years) for seal and sea lion bounties, hatchery releases and fish eggs taken, and fisheries catch statistics. The report contains interesting details, such as a list of private game reservations. “Commercial catching of clams is forbidden the year round at Netarts Bay, Tillamook County.” (p.81) “Rakes or submerged pots may not be used to catch crabs in Yaquina or Siletz Bay or Rivers. The only device legal there is the regular open net called a ring or hoop.” (p.82) Maps, charts, tables. |
