Hanford Reach salmon fishery update

Action:  Adjusts adult salmon daily limit.           

Effective date:  Sept. 1 through Oct. 31, 2023

Species affected:  Salmon.         

Location:  Columbia River; from Hwy. 395 Bridge at Pasco to Columbia Point (1/3 mile downstream of the I-182 Bridge)

Rule: Salmon daily limit 6 including no more than 1 adult. Release all salmon other than Chinook and coho.

Reason for action:  The salmon season in this area was listed incorrectly in the 2023/24 Washington Sport Fishing Rules pamphlet. This correction aligns salmon seasons with those agreed to during the 2023 North of Falcon (NOF) season setting process.

Information contact:  Region 3, 509-575-2740
