Washington Sport Fishing Rules: Effective July 1, 2017 - June 30, 2018 Salmon and Trout Handling Rules

FRESHWATER: “It is unlawful to totally remove salmon, steelhead, or Dolly Varden/Bull Trout from the water if it is unlawful to retain those fish, or if the angler subsequently releases the salmon, steelhead, Dolly Varden/Bull Trout.” EXCEPTIONS: • The Columbia River between the Buoy 10 line and the Rocky Point/Tongue Point line • The Columbia River from the Rocky Point/Tongue Point line upstream to Hwy. 730 OR/WA border the rules apply only when fishing from General Information General vessels less than 30 feet in length during Feb. 15-June 15. MARINE AREAS 5 through 13: “It is unlawful to bring wild salmon or a species of salmon aboard a vessel if it is unlawful to retain that salmon” (“aboard” means inside the gunwale of a vessel). MARINE AREA 2-2: “It is unlawful to totally remove salmon from the water if it is illegal to retain those fish, except anglers fishing from boats 30 feet or longer as listed on either their state or Coast Guard registration, are exempt.”

HOW TO RELEASE FISH Dehooker When you need to release a fish, there are some special precautions you (not a gaff hook) can take to give it the best chance of surviving: · Minimize handling by leaving the fish in the water. · Do not net your fish – but if you must, use a soft, knotless net or rubber mesh net. Knotless nets are now required in fly-fishing only areas and freshwater areas with selective gear rules. · Use a hook remover (dehooker) when hooks are imbedded in the mouth or jaw. · If a fish has swallowed the hook, cut the leader. · Keep fingers away from the eyes and gills of the fish.

SELECTIVE FISHING Selective fisheries for hatchery-produced fish and catch-and-release fisheries are increasingly important to providing opportunities in Washington. To ensure these fisheries are successful, it is absolutely essential that participating anglers comply with all regulations and take great care in releasing unmarked fish to ensure the greatest chance for survival. Photo shows the proper technique of releasing a fish with a dehooker without bringing the fish aboard the vessel.

3 Steps to Safe and Legal Shellfish Harvest - It's your responsibility!

1 ���� Know the Rules (You could get a ticket) Is the harvesting season open? Read the rules for seasons, size, and bag limits. For beach seasons, check the website wdfw.wa.gov/fishing/shellfish/beaches, the toll-free WDFW Emergency Rule Change hotline (866) 880-5431 or contact the WDFW customer service desk (360) 902-2700 to verify seasons. A chart of current seasons can be downloaded here: wdfw.wa.gov/fishing/shellfish/beaches/WDFWBeachSeasonsBarChart.pdf 2 �����Pollution Closures (You could get sick) Does the beach meet standards for healthy eating? Some closures and advisories are shown on page 127. For more detailed information and current updates visit the Washington Department of Health website at doh.wa.gov/shellfishsafety.htm, call (360) 236-3330 or the local health department. County health department phone numbers are published in the government pages of local telephone directories. 3 �����Marine Biotoxin Closures andVibrio Warnings (You could get sick or die) Is there an emergency closure due to Shellfish Poisoning (PSP/ASP/DSP) or Vibrio bacteria? Water quality conditions can change quickly. On the day you plan to harvest, check the DOH website at doh.wa.gov/shellfishsafety.htm, call (360) 236-3330, or the Shellfish Safety toll-free Hotline at (800) 562-5632.

Two different state agencies are responsible for two different types of recreational shellfish harvest closures. The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) is responsible for conservation closures or season adjustments. These closures are designed to protect and conserve intertidal shellfish populations. The Washington Department of Health (DOH) is responsible for human health-related closures in response to potentially life-threatening environmental conditions, which result from PSP/ASP/DSP, Vibrio bacteria or pollution, as described in the Shellfish Safety section on the next page. Permanent WDFW/DOH closures and periodic DOH harvest advisories are shown on page 127.

There is only one native crayfish species in Washington – the signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus). This species can be identified by its uniform brownish coloration, white or light coloration of the claw joint ,and the smooth surface of its carapace and claws compared to that of nonnative species. Native crayfish are the only crayfish that may be removed from the vicinity of the waterbody alive. If you cannot positively identify your catch as a nonnative species, the daily limit and other restrictions listed above for native crayfish apply.

134 Washington Sport Fishing Rules: Effective July 1, 2017 - June 30, 2018 Statewide Gear Rules - Crab, Shrimp and Crawfish

Caution The requirements below are the minimum established by law. At some locations currents may require the addition of weights to traps and the use of additional buoys to prevent the equipment from being lost. Refer to the individual species listings (crab, page 132; shrimp, page 134; and crawfish, page 130) for seasons and other harvest rules.

GENERAL GEAR RULES: May be harvested by hand or dipnet. Hand operated instruments may not penetrate the shell. One star trap, one ring net, one castable snare, or one pot is considered one unit of gear. The maximum number of units of gear that may be fished per person is: Puget Sound: (Marine Area 4, east of the Bonilla-Tatoosh line, and in Marine Areas 5-13). Shrimp: Two pots per person, and no more than 4 shrimp pots may be onboard or fished by any one boat at a time. Crab: Two units of crab gear per person, and no limit on the number of units of crab gear per boat. Coastal Waters: (Marine Areas 1-3 and in Marine Area 4, west of the Bonilla-Tatoosh line). Two units of crab and/or shrimp gear per person. Exception: Columbia River - three units of crab gear per person. Freshwater: Crawfish: Five units of gear per person. Every shellfish pot, ring net, or star trap left unattended in Washington waters must have its own buoy line and a separate buoy that is permanently and legibly marked with the owner’s first name, last name, and permanent address (telephone number is voluntary). It is ILLEGAL to set or pull unattended shellfish gear with a buoy that does not have your name on it, and only one name and address may appear on each buoy. Any angler may assist the person whose name is on the buoy while he or she is pulling the pot. No fisher may set, or pull shellfish gear from a vessel, in Catch Record Card Areas 1-13, from one hour after official sunset to one hour before official sunrise.All shellfish gear must be removed from the water on closed days. Buoys must be constructed of durable material (no bleach, antifreeze, detergent bottles, paint cans, etc.) and must be visible on the surface at all times except during extreme tidal conditions. Personal flags and staff, if attached to buoys, can be of any color. Buoy lines must be weighted sufficiently to prevent them from floating on the surface. All crab, shrimp, and crawfish pots must be equipped with a biodegradable device (rot/escape cord) and shall include one or more of the following: (1) securing the pot lid hook or tie down strap with a single loop of cord; or (2) sewing a 3" by 5" escape panel in the upper half of pot closed with cord; or (3) attaching the pot lid or one pot side (serving as a pot lid) with no more than three single loops of cord.

Cord used must be untreated 100% cotton or other natural fiber no larger than thread size 120 (⅛"). This cord, when attached as described above, must be able to rot away and allow crab, shrimp, crawfish and fish to escape freely if the pot is lost.
