THE FOLLOWING FISHING REPORT WAS FORWARDED BY TODD MILLER, WDFW

The Hanford Reach fall salmon sport fishery from September 18 through September 24. WDFW staff interviewed anglers from 583 boats (1,686 anglers) with 534 adult Chinook.

Based on sampling, an estimated 1,727 adult Chinook were harvested from 5,304 angler trips (1,939 boats) in the sixth week of the fishery. In addition,  7 steelhead were caught and released.  

Our second run update did not track as we had hoped. Plan to keep the one adult Chinook limit through the season at this time.
