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.
Puget Sound Fishing Update 2 September, 2019
As I write this blog post, I’m getting ready to head up north to fish for coho out of the Port of Everett for 3 straight days culminating with the Salmon for Soldiers Day of Honor fishing event on Saturday, Sep 14th.
