2020 Puget Sound Spot Shrimp Season
What is it about shrimping that captures so much of the passion and energy of the Puget Sound outdoor enthusiast?
Is it that these are the best-tasting critters in our local waters? Or is it the “closet deadliest catch persona” we all have buried deep within us somewhere?
Whatever it is, it is clear, that we love our spot shrimp and the process of catching them. The much anticipated 2020 Puget Sound Spot Shrimp Season has been announced, let’s get to the details!
Marine Area 9 Blackmouth Fishing February, 2020
Marine Area 9 opened up on February 1st for fishing for and retention of a single hatchery chinook 22″ and larger (blackmouth). There were some initial positive reports and lots of “shaker city” kind of reports.
I couldn’t help myself for too long before I had to go out and check things out.
Marine Area 10 Blackmouth Fishing January, 2020
After all the snow, ice, and wind events we’ve had in the Puget Sound area lately, I finally made it out to fish for Blackmouth in Puget Sound. I had heard some recent good reports in Marine Area 10, so we decided to target fishing near Kingston. Marine Area 10 has been open since the start of the year and has just started to produce Blackmouth.
2020 Puget Sound Salmon Seasons
2020 Salmon seasons have been released as the North of Falcon process concludes. While the biggest headline and disappointment is the loss of most of the winter blackmouth season in 2020-2021, it may only be a one year setback. Summer chinook seasons have a slightly higher quota. Everything kicks off on June 1st with the opening of the Marine Area 10 coho season.
My final update to this post is a link to the 2021 Puget sound salmon season post just released.
Puget Sound Coho Fishing update – September 2019
Salmon for Soldiers is an amazing event where the recreational boating and sport fishing community get an opportunity to give back to the veterans who have proudly served our country. I highly recommend it for anyone with a boat and a desire to give back.
I also highly recommend it for any active duty, returning from deployment, or retired military. Words on a blog post and a few pictures do not adequately describe the range of emotions and the amount of positivity generated at this gathering.
