The entire Oregon State Police Marine Fisheries Team participated in a weeklong ocean patrol utilizing the "Guardian" vessel, the agency reported.

The team contacted a multitude of commercial vessels fishing for whiting, pink shrimp, sablefish, halibut and salmon.

Two commercial troll salmon boats were cited for Commercial Troll Prohibited Method: more than 4 spreads per wire. One vessel had 6 spreads per wire and the other vessel had one wire with 10 spreads and another 3 with 6 spreads.
