The Chum Salmon Only salmon fishery in Marine Area 10 will close at the end of November. This closure is due to the impacts on immature Chinook. All salmon fishing will be closed in this area through January 31st, 2015.
Looks like we are not going to be seeing any blackmouth fishing this November in Marine Area 9. Impacts on immature blackmouth have been just too high to allow a fishery. Hopefully, the fishery will open on January 16th 2016...
If you are a winter blackmouth fisherman here in our area of Puget Sound you will soon find that your opportunities will be curtailed to a great extent...
The best fishing opportunities that are available to the angler this month are endless. Perhaps this is the best month of the year here in the Pacific Northwest...
