Salmon Age ID?
« on: September 16, 2011, 12:21:40 PM »
Just reading through the regs for the Puyallup never can remember what has to be released if it's wild.

Anyway, how can you determine if a fish is Adult or Juvenile? It says you can keep 6 but only 4 can be adult. Do fish carry ID cards now?  :tung:

Its by the size. Each species should be listed in the regs.

Ahh, thanks. Took a while to find it in the regs. To many rules, that can get confusing!


Page 18
In freshwater and Marine Areas
2-1 and 2-2, Chinook 24" or more in length;
coho 20" or more in length; and pink, chum,
and sockeye salmon 12" or more in length, are
adults.

remember the regs say 4 adults of wich any two can be Coho, Chinook or chum or a combination. most people don't understand that. have seen a lot of tickets written, can be very expensive.

Be careful now.  The one's coming from Canadian waters need a passport.
