Opening of crab season delayed

The opening of the commercial Dungeness crab season will be delayed from Dec. 1 until at least Dec. 16 along the entire Oregon coast, according to a press release issued Wednesday by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. Crab quality testing in early November showed that none of the test areas met the meat yield criteria for a Dec. 1 opening. The delayed opening will allow crabs to fill with more meat.

The State of the Coast

A large group of students and professionals presented wide-ranging research related to the state of the Oregon coast at Salishan Resort on Saturday, Nov 9. Attended by scientists, conservationists, resource management professionals, fishermen, artists and others, including interested members of the public, the State of the Coast featured presentations, discussion and workshop topics ranging from the Warm Blob and Sea Star Wasting Syndrome to former Governor Tom McCall’s legacy.
