I believe there are only a couple of systems where you can keep a nate in Oregon.

Never really paid attention to it because it would never happen in my boats. If one happens to die from what ever, it's nutrients to the river. I wouldnt allow taking one home no matter the circumstances.

Over the last several years I cant think of any native that I released I wasnt 100% sure was fine. Reasons for that are, I dont fish bait, I wont use a diver, and I use heavy gear.
