Washington salmon fishing seasons tentatively set for 2024-2025
SEATTLE – Anglers in Washington can expect similar salmon fishing opportunities in 2024-2025 compared to last season, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) fishery managers announced today.
The 2024-25 salmon fishing seasons, cooperatively developed by WDFW and treaty tribes, were tentatively set Thursday at the week-long Pacific Fishery Management Council (PFMC) meeting held in Seattle.
“These salmon fishing seasons were crafted carefully to ensure conservation goals are achieved for salmon populations, especially those listed as threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act (ESA),” said WDFW Director Kelly Susewind.
“We’ve worked carefully with treaty tribes to ensure there will be sustainable salmon fisheries and developed a fair number of fishing opportunities in Washington while protecting weaker salmon stocks.”

They include the Nooksack, Skag
