The annual Northern Pikeminnow reward fishing season has begun. The Bonneville Power Administration compensates anglers for each fish over nine inches that they turn in. The Northern Pikeminnow preys on young salmon and steelhead. The Lower Snake River is participating in the reward program. Anglers are required to register before fishing, and further details on participation can be found at https://www.pikeminnow.org/. Last year, the top angler achieved a program record, earning close to $165,000 for catching Northern Pikeminnow.
