Anglers with the two-rod validation will be able to use two rods in areas of the upper Willamette River open to coho retention through the end of the year, under a temporary rule adopted by ODFW.
Effective Aug. 1 through Dec. 31 for anglers with the validation, two rods can be used in areas of the Willamette River upstream of Willamette Falls including tributaries and flowing waters that are open to retention of coho salmon.
