Steelhead fishing on the Umatilla River is closed and will not open until Sept. 1. 

Trout fishing on the Umatilla River opens on May 22 and will remain open until Oct. 31.

Due to the low predicated spring Chinook returns this year, the spring Chinook fishery will not be open this year. Broodstock collection takes priority to be able collect fish for future generations, and the predication is much higher than the broodstock goals for the Umatilla. Fisheries managers will continue to monitor the run and if the run progresses significantly larger than the predicated run fisheries managers will reevaluate whether a fishery would be opened.
