CURRENT RULES Lower Rogue Canyon — No fishing with bait Sept. 1 through Oct. 31 from Roster Creek near Agness upstream to Whiskey Creek near Rainie Falls. Upper Rogue — Flies only Sept. 1 through Oct. 31 upstream of Gold Ray Dam. Bait is allowed Nov. 1 through Dec. 31 upstream of the Rogue Elk boat ramp, but fishing allowed only with artificial flies and lures Nov. 1 through Dec. 31 downstream of the Rogue Elk boat ramp. PROPOSALS Advertisement Repeals — Separate proposals to rescind the Lower Rogue Canyon ban and the Nov. 1 through Dec. 31 ban from the Rogue Elk boat ramp to Gold Ray Dam. No current proposal to change the Sept. 1-Oct. 31 bait ban on the entire upper Rogue. Alternative ban — A so-called "compromise" proposal to extend the lower bait-fishing deadline from the Rogue Elk boat ramp to the Shady Cove boat ramp Nov. 1 through Dec. 31. DECISION The Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission is set on Friday in Salem to decide this and other changes to Oregon’s angling regulations that will go into effect Jan. 1. — Mark Freeman Mail Tribune Home Local News  | Sports  | Business  | Obituaries  | Life Opinion - Politics | AP News | Archives  |  Site Map   E Southern Oregon  | Classified   Copyright © 1997-2004 Mail Tribune.
