Finally got answer from WDFW

Bill-

I apologize that you were we not contacted on this issue. I appreciate this being brought to our attention. We inadvertently opened that section to adult retention during July-August and are in the process of filing a regulation to require that adult salmon be released. As for the September – October timeframe there are harvestable numbers of fall Chinook and coho expected to return.



Thanks

-Kirt
