Abstract
NMFS announces inseason actions for certain subareas in the Pacific halibut recreational fishery in the International Pacific Halibut Commission's regulatory Area 2A off Washington, Oregon, and California. Specifically, this action increases the bag limit from one to two fish per day in the Oregon Central Coast and Southern Oregon subareas starting June 12. It also adds the season dates of June 9, 11, 16, 18, 23, 25, and 30 for the Washington North Coast subarea and June 13 and 20 for the Columbia River subarea. This action is intended to conserve Pacific halibut and provide angler opportunity where available.
