Action: Restores the adult salmon daily limits described in the 2020-2021 Washington Sport Fishing Rules Pamphlet; all other permanent rules remain in effect.
Effective date: June 5, 2021.
Species affected: Salmon.
Location: From the mouth to boundary markers below Klickitat Salmon Hatchery.
Reason for action: The adult salmon daily limit on the Klickitat River was reduced earlier in the year to help ensure the spring Chinook broodstock collection goal was achieved. ?Fishery co-managers have indicated that the spring Chinook escapement to the Klickitat Hatchery is on track to make broodstock, therefore a reduced daily limit for adult Chinook is no longer needed.
Additional information: Anglers are reminded to check the Washington Sport Fishing Rules pamphlet for additional information.
