Eric, Glad to fill you in. No limit on # of people but a 2 fishermen per Quinault member limiton Salmon & Cook. 3 on the Quinault river while in a boat. Cook creek is 4.5 miles long. Mostly brushy banks. Fishable rez land on the Salmon is 5 miles above the hatchery with limited access. 1/2 mile below the hatchery to the Q 1000. Also, the lower Canyon on the salmon is on Rez. River mile 1.6 to 2.4 Several Guides are at 100.00 per person. Most are 75.00. River price is 125.00
Bottom line- If you don't mind walking(and brush on Cook creek) there is a lot of water that sees no fishermen. However, you will be away from the hatchery holes where most of the fish are caught. Week days expect 6-8 fishermen on Cook. Double on Week-ends. Salmon has less people then Cook creek. Most guides opt for Cook Creek when they are both open. Sometimes I'll fish both in one day.
Hope this answers your questions. Letty
