Get involved-

If have not done so please remember to send in your Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) rules proposal packets in by July 18th.

Be sure to show your support for wild steelhead release by proposing-
“ Statewide release for all wild steelhead, no exceptions” It is important that you use those words exactly because the WDFW's default statewide policy is targeted as Wild Steelhead Release (only hatchery marked fish allowed for harvest). Harvest of wild steelhead is, however, allowed on systems that are consistently seeing run-sizes that exceed escapement goals. The following is a WDFW link to the website to obtain a proposal form:
