Daily Limit The maximum number or poundsseems pretty straightforward to me.
of fish, shellfish, or seaweed of a given species

Now if you were of the mind to drop them off at home, and go fishing anyways, it would be hard to prove.
But that is where ethics come in...
It is what you do when no-one is watching that defines what kind of person you are.
But what about catch and release ?

Don't matter where you get em your only allowed a daily limit of salmon. so if the daily limit is 2 in the salt and 3 in the river you can catch 2 in the salt and one in the river or three in the river and 0 in the salt from my understanding...?
:yeah:

If you limited out and went back out, they would look at yor catch record and depending on whether you were honest and filled it out, they would cite you and probably take your gear.
( unless you speak russian and or spanish, chinese, korean or any other language besides english)

You catch a legal one and record it on your catch record, repeat until limit is met.

You catch a legal one and record it on your catch record, repeat until limit is met.Not saying going back out in the salt, (same area), can't you read? The salt is like fishing a lake in fresh water then fishing in a river. Daily limit for trout is 5 fish. So whats the difference? You catch 2 in area 6, punch your card with area 6. Then fish a river for salmon and punch your card with that rivers code. Your Possession limit for salmon is two daily limits +40 lbs possessed in a frozen or processed form.

Here is what the Reg.s say about trout;
TROUT: The combined daily limit for an angler that fishes in both rivers and lakes on the same day is 5 TROUT. In the combined daily limit, only 2 TROUT may be from rivers, except as provided for EASTERN BROOK TROUT.
If you could not fish in other areas for salmon after you caught a limit in one area then why doesn't the reg.s give you a combined daily limit like for trout?

You can transport 2 daily limits ie.. get stopped after a sat and sun fishin trip- headin home on sunday
Post by: PA BEN on September 29, 2011, 05:55:05 PM
You know the answer. You are just trying to play an endless game with words and definitions to allow you to break the rules. You know what the law, ethics and morality say here. You are looking for a dodge around the rules and law.BS, I ask because it's not clear. If you think you know it all, show me where it's clear in the reg.s!!!! Not trying to dodge anything. Was sitting with some buddys and this topice can up. So, stop busting my balls. It is clear for Trout not salmon.

of fish, shellfish, or seaweed of a given species
and size which a person may legally keep in a
single day.
You May Not:
Possess fish or shellfish that do not meet the
minimum and maximum size limits, weight limits,
or sex restrictions, or that are in excess of the
daily or possession limit.
Continue to fish for salmon after the adult
portion of the daily limit has been retained.
Pretty straight forward.
Really,, what more do you need???

So, your daily limit in the salt is 2 coho. The fresh water river you want to fish has a 6 coho limit.
So in this case PA BEN, if you catch 2 in the salt then you can only keep 4 in the river since the daily limit is 6 in the river you cannot have more then that on your punch card regardless where you get them, if your in the salt you can only keep 2 like the regs state, if you catch one in the river then go to the salt you can only keep one more. If you catch 2 in the river you cannot fish the salt cause you already have your daily limit punched for the salt even if you caught them in the river. ;)
P.S. Your right, people should not be bustin your balls for trying to clarify something in the most confusing rule book known to man, I guess the US tax code coule be a little more confusing I guess :chuckle: !!!
Post by: Fishnclifff on September 30, 2011, 08:59:27 AM
Record 2 coho in area 9--you are done in the salt.
Motor up the snohomish and record 4 more for the snoho.
Yor daily limit is done 6 fish. You have retained your daily limit of adult fish.
Yor catch record cannot reflect more than a daily limit. The code entries on your card will tell everyone where you caught yor fish.
Abide by the limits for the body of water you are fishing and you are good to go.

Simply put::Will mr. ball buster. This is not what you have posted so far. Why did you wate this long to post this up? BtW, I was told by an old fisherman today, if you take your salt limit home, you can go out and catch a river limit the same day. I don't think I will try any of this until I check with Fish & Game. Seems like what robodad said, THE REG.S ARN'T VERY CLEAR.

I'm just speaking from experience. I've been checked while fishing and told, what I've posted is legal.
I've never been cited.
Post by: PA BEN on September 30, 2011, 06:34:40 PM
You are only allowed to record 1 daily limit on your catch record.What about this post? Only one limit. Now you are saying you can fish the salt and the fresh. You eather need to be more clear on what you post or make up your mind.
You can transport 2 daily limits ie.. get stopped after a sat and sun fishin trip- headin home on sunday
Post by: Fishnclifff on September 30, 2011, 07:01:21 PM
You cant exceed a daily limit of adult fish. This is the way it was explained to me and I have never exceeded that and never been cited.
