The 2012 Puget Sound salmon season structure was defined during Pacific Fisheries Management Council and North of Falcon (PFMC/NoF) public meetings that concluded in early April. These fishing agreements resulted from discussions involving state and federal fishery management agencies, tribal fishery co-managers, representatives of the commercial and recreational communities, and other interested parties.
This packet summarizes schedules and rules for non-treaty Puget Sound commercial salmon fisheries, as agreed to through the PFMC/NoF process.
