| Notes | In the mid-1970s, it became clear to fisheries managers that there was too much pressure on some recreational bay clam fisheries, and the sizes of clams taken was becoming too small, endangering future production. This document is a draft of a report on the problem submitted to the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission in 1976. Statistics include size and age data for Tillamook, Yaquina and Netarts Bays. |
