I was wondering if anyone knows what the season is for the Chehalis river basin? I've seen what it says for the marine waters but nothing on the rivers. Could this be in part that they havent come to any agrement with the tribe on this? or does the state meet on this topic in a different meeting than when they set the marine water season?

Steely,
Tentative agreement...could change but historically it probably wont...I will start with the nets.

Non Treaty....3 days end of August 2a 2d
2 days 1st wk of Oct. 2a 2d
1 day last week of October 2b

Treaty....3 day sometime last 2 wk of Sept
2 day 1st week of October
2 day 2nd week of October
1 day 3rd week of October

Rec Season....Sept 1 opener...2 adult salmon
1 King only, 1 unmarked coho only or 2 marked coho. Should be a chum season also...Satsop open 10-1

Thats what I Know!

Steely,
should have included the Hump also....similar netting situation for tribe...no particular attention for non-treaty nets. No king retention, no unmarked coho retention...2 marked coho....good run of hatchery coho expected back.

Thanks Jim ...
