February 27, 2009


Action: Lewis River anglers may keep only one adult spring chinook as part of their daily salmon limit.

Species affected: Chinook salmon

Effective dates: March 1, 2009 until further notice.

Location: Lewis River from mouth to mouth of East Fork; North Fork Lewis from mouth to overhead powerlines below Merwin Dam.

Reason for action: Slightly over 2,000 hatchery adult spring chinook are forecasted to return to the Lewis River this year. A total of 1,350 fish must escape past the sport fishery to meet the hatchery brood stock goal. The expected remaining harvestable hatchery surplus is too small to support a full sport fishery. The sport fishery and hatchery returns will be closely monitored in-season and further adjustments to the sport fishery may be made later this season.

Other information: The daily salmon limit will be six chinook of which no more than one may be an adult. Minimum size 12". Release wild chinook.

Information contact: (360) 696-6211. For latest information press *1010
