Nestucca and Three Rivers wild Chinook bag stays at one a day through November
Oregon’s fishing regulation updates, revised Sept. 23, 2026, set the wild Chinook rules on the Nestucca system for the rest of fall. Confirm the live page before you fish.
On the Nestucca River and Bay, the Little Nestucca, and Three Rivers, from Aug. 1 through Nov. 30, the daily adult bag is one wild Chinook in aggregate. The seasonal total is no more than two adult wild Chinook in aggregate, on the waters described on that updates page.
A separate line covers Three Rivers from the mouth to the hatchery deadline. From Oct. 1 through Nov. 30 the same one-a-day, two-for-the-period wild Chinook rule applies. From Dec. 1 through Dec. 31, all Chinook angling and retention are closed there.
From Nestucca Bay to the Cloverdale Bridge, and on the Little Nestucca to the Highway 130 Bridge, Sept. 9 through Oct. 28 allows wild coho on Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday: one adult a day, three for the period, plus one jack. This brief is the Nestucca and Three Rivers October timing.
